FREE Redis Cache alternative for cPanel, CloudLinux and LiteSpeed/LSCache
Many web hosts using cPanel/CloudLinux want to enable Redis Cache for the entire server without incurring additional per-website/account pricing. They believe that since Redis Cache is freely available on many other control panels, it should be included at no extra cost with cPanel and CloudLinux, given the costs associated with using these platforms.
Has anyone used this newly released one that I just found? It was released 1 month ago.

it's not true that using the Litespeed Cache Plugin activates Redis? Object caching is an option built into the Litespeed plugin; on cloudlinux, you need to enable the Redis extension and activate object caching by using LSCACHE. However, it must be done site-by-site.
LSCache's client-side functionality requires Redis to be installed on the server and the PHP module to be enabled in PHP Selector within the cPanel account.
Currently, the only method to achieve this is by installing Redis on the server, which utilizes a shared service. However, this is not recommended due to the security risk associated with all cPanel users sharing the same service.
AccelerateWP Premium includes Redis Cache, utilizing a secure and separate instance for each cPanel account, and it is compatible with LVE. Nonetheless, AccelerateWP Premium is only compatible with Apache and does not work alongside LSCache from LiteSpeed.
The OP plugin addresses two main issues:
1) Establishing secure and separate instances for each cPanel account.
2) Allowing the use of LiteSpeed/LSCache.
3) It's FREE, eliminating the need to pay $1.20 per user as required with AccelerateWP Premium when using CloudLinux.
Does the plugin disable the default Redis port?
No, it doesn't.
That’s amazing. Just curious if someone tried it.
Just use SQLite as cache.

OR / if SQlite extension isnt enabled then use object cache directly in PHP OPCache

Problem solved and it will likely be faster, because Redis has network/UNIX socket overhead.
