Which is the "official" Redis port for Windows?

Tags:

I'm a little confused about which Redis port is the "official" Windows port. I know that there is no truly official Windows port, as there is none on Redis.io. However, I have discovered two different Windows ports:

  • https://github.com/MSOpenTech/Redis -- the MSOpenTech version
  • https://github.com/rgl/redis/downloads -- the Dušan Majkić port that MSOpenTech credits

Does anybody know which one is preferred? I know everyone says there is no stable Redis port for Windows, but I'm running the Dušan Majkić version, and it runs like a dream.

MSOpenTech's port is enough good (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/interoperability/archive/2013/04/22/redis-on-windows-stable-and-reliable.aspx)

Dušan Majkić's port has more downloads then MSOpenTech's port (comparing between github download page and nuget version of MSOpenTech), but it is no longer update and support only up to redis 2.4.6.

The benchmark of MSOpenTech's port shows same as linux version, and Dušan Majkić's port bechmark is approximately 1/3. (comparing between version 2.6.x of both MSOpenTech's port and linux version with 2.4.6 of Dušan Majkić's port so the results of benchmark may not fair, but we care only the best).

And the last, we're using MSOpenTech's port in a live product with no errors :)
