Change your application: migrate from KeyDB to KiviDB

KeyDB clients are Redis clients, so nothing changes but the address, the port, the password, and TLS for KiviDB Cloud. If the application calls EXPIREMEMBER or a KEYDB.* command, change those calls first: KiviDB answers them with ERR unknown command.

Python (redis-py)

import os, redis

# Before
r = redis.Redis(host="keydb.internal", port=6379, password=os.environ["KEYDB_PASSWORD"])
r.execute_command("EXPIREMEMBER", "session:42", "token", 3600)

# After: KiviDB Cloud
r = redis.Redis(host="your-name.cloud.kividb.io", port=6380, username="kividbapp",
                password=os.environ["KIVIDB_PASSWORD"], ssl=True, ssl_ca_certs="kividb-ca.pem")
r.hset("session:42", "token", "...")
r.hexpire("session:42", 3600, "token")   # per-field expiry: hashes only

Node.js (ioredis)

// Before
const keydb = new Redis({ host: "keydb.internal", port: 6379, password: process.env.KEYDB_PASSWORD });

// After: self-hosted KiviDB
const kividb = new Redis({ host: "kividb.internal", port: 6380, password: process.env.KIVIDB_PASSWORD });

For a set or sorted-set member that must expire, store the expiry time as the score in a sorted set and remove expired members on read (ZREMRANGEBYSCORE key -inf <now>), or move the members into a hash and use HEXPIRE.
