Lessons Learned from the Memcached to Redis to Valkey Journey | Unlocked Conf - San Jose

Ignacio Alvarez, Senior Software Development Principal at Mercado Libre, takes you inside the evolution of one of Latin America’s largest internal caching platforms. This session explores how Mercado Libre scaled from single-tenant Memcached clusters to a multi-tenant architecture built on Redis and Valkey, powered by a custom SDK, centralized control plane, and heavy use of Amazon ElastiCache. With 8,000 caches and 30,000 nodes in operation, Nacho shares lessons on governance, criticality-based design, bandwidth bottlenecks, multi-cloud strategy, and the tradeoffs of multi-tenancy at scale. Attendees will gain insight into the architectural decisions, efficiency optimizations, and platform abstractions enabling Mercado Libre to support thousands of microservices while growing infrastructure 30–60% year over year. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - About Unlocked Conference Unlocked brings together infrastructure and platform engineers to share practical lessons in scaling high-performance systems with Valkey and modern real-time data infrastructure.
