Or, set the database Type to Redis Stack to get all of our advanced capabilities.\n\nIf you'd like to use triggers and functions with a [Flexible subscription](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rc/databases/create-database/create-pro-database-new), contact [support](https://redis.com/company/support/).\n\nFor more information about triggers and functions, see the [triggers and functions documentation](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/oss_and_stack/stack-with-enterprise/deprecated-features/triggers-and-functions).\n\n> [!NOTE]\n> Triggers and functions is discontinued as of [May 2024](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rc/changelog/2024/may-2024)."
