Amazon ElastiCache Reviews & Product Details

What I like most about Amazon ElastiCache is its extremely low-latency performance. It noticeably improves application response times by offloading frequent reads from the database, and it also handles traffic spikes smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Scaling large Redis clusters isn’t always seamless; it can require planning for downtime or doing careful rebalancing, especially when you’re dealing with stateful workloads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS ElastiCache is easy to implement with irrepctive redis and Memcached, sign in to AWS and spin the server as per the application requirement, Any time server can be upscaled and downscaled based on the requirement, and can create highly available clusters with multiple nodes, to manage the application traffic very efficiently, Creating the credential is too easy that we can create a group and create multiple users and assign with different roles. With the AWS Eco system, we can connect our ElastiCache server at any time from anywhere using an EC2 machine, while attaching top Security configuration. AWS ElastiCache provides a frequent snapshot facility for any event that happens so we can revert the changes—hassle-free version upgrade. AWS Support is Top-notch in the market. if we need any help related to infra, the AWS support team will be available 24/7. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Run on the Default port, and not let us change it. nothing else was found in Elasticache clusters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Elasticache is fully managed cache service . I have integrated my app with dynamo dB and elasticache with redis caching engine which made my app super fast on the data that was frequently accessed . Elasticache supports hashes ,sets aswell this I loved most , without elasticache if I want to use caching on dynamo dB I would have used redis but that would be really difficult for me to deploy and maintain.

Simple and easy to setup

Dynamodb accelerator also does the same but it is specific to dynamo dB but elasticache can be used with multiple data stores. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is really expensive.

It is only compatible with AWS databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They offere verything at overpriced cost we did Elastic Serach hosting 10K a month moved away from aws cost is 800 a month at better perfomance, someone got access to a key at somepoint we rotated but the account kept getting comprosied and missused we raised 30 tickets to AWS no one care and end up us leaving as a billg over 60K came due to this, where as we didn't consume any of the 60K and again aws didn't care at all...

If you like to pay 10X more for nothing, get no support or pay for a support that goes in circle go for AWS.... we moved to GCP instead which is 10X better... AWS wonder why people uses it? Burning VC money maybe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ElasticCache (for Redis) is simple to set up, reasonably priced, and very easy to use with modern development languages. The Redis version supports all the open-source features as well as clustering, upward scaling, and serverless architecture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's hard to scale down if you need to, and the lowest scale is a bit pricey for smaller organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I love the most out of ElastiCache is no more operational overhead, my team don't have to manage anything beyond configuring the instance types Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not anything right at the moment , but it would be nice if it scales where based on the usage rather than manually configuring instance types Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS elastic cache helps the user boost web application performance by allowing them to obtain data faster from the in-memory cache. It reduces the database costs and thus the load on the backend Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS Elastic Cache is very expensive and not easily affordable by everyone. The default TTL is infinity. We cannot limit the client from accessing data stores via the AWS console Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has amazing performance and security features. Its amazingly scalable, and very easy to use when developing applications. You can very easily integrate and implement with your application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cache is stored in primary storage instead of secondary, which makes it little time consuming. The default configurations give it TTL as infinite. Being part of AWS infrastructure, the biggest drawback is the time consuming nature of AWS Infrastructure Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's basically the original redis while redis.io is a different product, not redis compatible without all it's features. elasticcache has all redis features, and all the clients fully supports it.

It had great partitioning support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
