“The market for real-time data is booming right now as businesses transform the ways applications are built, deployed, and run to deliver digital experiences expected by their customers. As a high-growth, next-generation data platform company, Redis is well-positioned to disrupt the market,” said Alexy, “I’m excited to be part of a growing and innovative team to help assist with the next phase of the journey.”
Since 1995, Dr. Dorit Dor has served several pivotal roles at Check Point, leading the company’s product management, research and development (R&D), from concept to delivery.

In 2019, Dr. Dor was named one of Israel’s most powerful women by Forbes and she is also an active member of the World Economic Forum Centre for Cybersecurity.
“A new surge of digital experiences—and the demand for them—is transforming the way developers can build true real-time applications. We’re at a critical moment of innovation and Redis is on the cusp of delivering those experiences,” said Dr. Dor. “It’s an exciting time in the company’s journey and I’m looking forward to working with the management team and the other directors as the company continues its growth trajectory.”
