Added Redis requirepass authorization for dictionary source
Added Redis requirepass authorization (for redis dictionary source). #13688 (Ivan Torgashov).
Why it matters
This feature enables users to connect to password-protected Redis instances when using Redis as a dictionary source in ClickHouse. It improves security by allowing connections to authenticated Redis servers, thus supporting environments where Redis access is restricted with a password.How to use it
When configuring a Redis dictionary source, specify the Redis password using the newrequirepass parameter in the dictionary configuration. This allows ClickHouse to authenticate with the Redis server by providing the required password.
