Perhaps just using an embedded DB would be better in your case? Something like Berkeley DB. Alternatively, just Dockerize it, although I assume it's too much upkeep.

While not as "Redis-y", there are some decent KV-ish managed databases out there:

- Firestore - Cloudflare Workers KV - DynamoDB - Bigtable

One GCP Firestore tip a lot of folks don't realize for non-client-WebSocket-y workloads you can run Firestore in Datastore mode and it acts much more like DynamoDB. Can turn usage bills from $10s per month to pennies, and IIRC gives you faster response times and higher scaling limits in terms of writes per second
