Having non existing C++ knowledge. I am looking for RocksDB server which can be consumed just like Redis.

RocksDB is an embedded KV store, so unlike Redis it's not meant to be consumed over the network. Facebook wrote it as a backend for MySQL (see MyRocks - http://myrocks.io/).

Think of it more as a SQLite use case (which is an embedded database). Just like SQLite, it has a variety of bindings (ex. https://github.com/evernym/python-rocksdb for Python bindings).

Cockroach uses RocksDB and can be consumed like Redis:

Kafka streaming also uses RocksDB under the hood.

Try KSQL (https://www.confluent.io/product/ksql/ ) for a SQL-like interface to stream data from Kafka.

You can use kyoto tycoon http://fallabs.com/kyototycoon/spex.html . Kyoto tycoon is a http interface for another Key/Value storage kyoto cabinet. There is way to put any other KV storage behind same interface("Pluggable Database" section)
