What is an AOF file?

AOF files mostly belong to Redis server.
  • Redis Append-Only File: AOF files are used by Redis to log every command that changes the database. This file helps the server rebuild the database after a restart. Its content is line based and can be viewed with a text editor, though it is best handled by Redis itself. See details at Redis official site.
  • Artlantis Object File: These files use XML to store 3D object information for rendering in Artlantis software. The XML structure holds scene data and object attributes. For more, visit Artlantis.
  • Qualcomm Log File (Adaptive Optimization File): Employed by Qualcomm QCAT, these files log event data used for troubleshooting and network investigations. They support TEMS Investigation. More info is available at Qualcomm.
  • FilExt.com note: Although the AOF extension is shared, each file’s content and purpose depend on the originating software. Always open and edit these files with the respective application to avoid misinterpretation of the data.
