Coolify unfortunately didn't click with me, and I had a bad experience with a Redis database, so I stopped using it.
I would recommend Elestio (eles[dot]io) as an alternative which isn't open source, or self-hostable, but met my primary goal of drastically reducing cloud costs. And you can bring your own cloud/server, though I'm choosing to also rent from Hetzner through Elestio.
I'm running two redis databases on machines with 3 cpus, 4gb ram, and 80gb storage for about $80 total (the machines are billed hourly, but you get the max monthly bill up front).

I tried using coolify and I gave up due to every ~third redis connection failing to connect.
No idea what was up with that, ended up going with CapRover.
Interesting, what was bad about your Redis experience on Coolify? I was just about to do the same for a personal project.
What was the issue you had with Redis?
