[NEW] Support for Active/Active replication about valkey HOT 6 OPEN

Can you add some additional information about what types of workloads you are trying to support. Active/Active replication is a hard problem with a lot of tradeoffs. It would be helpful to have more information about your specific usecase to inform those tradeoffs.

It might be this possible only on Proxy level. It make more complex if it start support in core Valkey code.

In our case, we currently use Redis to hold user session info for SSO purposes.

Because our setup is currently Active/Passive, when we do conduct a failover to disaster recovery site, all users will need to relogin. If there was an active/active setup for Valkey, it would be pretty great so there wouldnt be any downtime during a failover.

Im not quite sure how Redis Enterprise works, but im sure their version of Active/Active is done outside the core as well.

I presume that means you are using a hash or a string? Are you okay with a timestamp at the object level to determining which objects wins.

@btzq , I think your problem can resolved by setup proxy in-between or setup slave on secondary region and any downtime you just failover, It's great if Valkey will think to support in future
