## Detailed info

## What is BetterDB?

BetterDB is a Valkey and Redis monitor. It persists slowlog, command history, and client analytics, with real-time dashboards. It can run self-hosted, in the cloud, or air-gapped.

## What BetterDB does

The monitor includes a real-time dashboard, Memory and Latency Doctor, slowlog, COMMANDLOG, ACL analysis, client analytics, cluster topology, and vector search. It also lists metric forecasting, an MCP server, a self-hosted AI assistant, operational webhooks, and migration analysis. The page says it persists to in-memory, PostgreSQL, or SQLite. Self-hosted data persists with no retention limit. BetterDB Cloud history is 7 days on Free, 90 days on Pro, and 1 year on Enterprise. Air-gapped deployment uses offline license verification and no phone-home. The page shows docker run -d betterdb/monitor:latest.
