I was excited to read its embeddable data structure then found it did Redis serialisation. I was hoping for something close to plasma store given that one isn’t getting much love these days. Would be great to get something that can save binary formats like arrow.

Ultimately Redis just stores bytes, there's no reason you couldn't put arrow formatted data in it (or in Olric, as I understand it).

I do wish plasma wasn't dead/dying though. There is a huge gap in the (extremely crowded) key-value store space for zero-copy shared memory IPC. I assume it doesn't get built because it's not very "cloud native," but such a thing would be undeniably useful.
