One of the most useless FAQ I saw. I would have been more interested in knowing the improvements or changes made when compared to Redis. I had some trouble with large scale master slave Redis configuration. I was hoping if they have solved the issues.

They list the two things they changed compared to redis in the readme.
I went back and read again. "ApsaraCache is based on the Redis official release 4.0 and has many features and performance enhancements" - I could find only memcache and performance improvement. Now Membache has nothing to do with Redis, its something not improving Redis, and 30% performance improvement is very vague statement with no other supporting benchmarks and documents. When they say many, I can't see any other than these two.
They implemented the memcached protocol on top of redis.

Also,

> There are many features in ApsaraCache, the following two are included in this release and the other features will be gradually released in the subsequent, so stay tuned.
