RedisLabs has done great work in developing Redis but these extensions to retrofit Redis into a multi-model database have issues.

Raw latency is usually not the primary concern most of the time and having everything in RAM can be a major cost problem, further compounded by the lack of compression available as with other persistent stores. The RESP protocol is also overloaded and hard to work with when dealing with json and search queries.
