The inclusion of Redis timeseries is huge!

This was available for a long time as an extension as part of Redis Stack, but most hosted Redis providers don't make extensions available (I'm assuming due to nuances in Redis's not-quite-open licensing).

If cloud providers which include Redis are now going to include this, it opens up a lot of potential for my use case.

When do you want to store your time series data in Redis and not a database like TimescaleDB or Clickhouse which is optimized for storage on disk and analytics queries?

Likely when it's small enough to keep in RAM and you want to do some sort of on-the fly aggregation/correlation.

Then you can usually just store it in the memory of your application. No need to complicate your stack by running another service.
