Docs & Quickstart

BaseKV supports Redis and Memcached client protocols plus a DynamoDB-style API for simple item get/put workflows. Start by creating a database, then point your client at the BaseKV endpoint.

Quickstart

1. Create a database in the dashboard.
2. Choose a protocol: Redis, Memcached, or DynamoDB-style.
3. Copy the endpoint details for that protocol.
4. Update your client connection settings.
5. Write a test key to confirm connectivity.

Switching notes

For Redis users, swap your connection string and keep your client library. For Memcached, you can often keep the same client with a new endpoint. For DynamoDB-style integrations, BaseKV targets simple item get/put workflows rather than full DynamoDB feature parity. BaseKV focuses on compatibility you can validate, not opaque migrations.

See the compatibility page for a practical overview of what each integration is intended for.
