Yeah, many companies will just reject any use of AGPL software out of hand.
The good news is unless you're offering redis access to your customers, the general interpretation of the AGPL would mean that even if you add a plugin or something to redis you don't have to distribute the source. It also is pretty well established that having a service you rely on behind the scenes and don't modify definitely doesn't violate the license if you don't release your source.
So I get the reluctance, especially from business legal departments, but for practical use by most people it shouldn't matter.
