## Redis Flex versus Auto Tiering
30

31

Redis Flex is the enhanced successor to Auto Tiering, generally available as of Redis Enterprise Software version 8.0.2.

Redis database versions support Redis Flex and Auto Tiering as follows:

| 7.2 and earlier | <spantitle="Not supported">❌</span> | <spantitle="Supported">✅</span> |
