"Boost the performance of our Redis cluster"
4/5
What do you like best about Amazon ElastiCache?

Not much modification required to move our existing redis cluster onto the Amazon ElastiCache. What I love the most is Multi-AZ failsafe architecture available to set up our Redis cluster here. Also it is very fast and easy to manage through the AWS console. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon ElastiCache?

Not complaining, but it feels the pricing structure for the usage is pretty high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Managed in-memory data store service"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Amazon ElastiCache?

Easy to set up, resilient and highly available.

Option between Redis and Memcached is nice for devs who simply want a read-through cache to sit in front of DB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon ElastiCache?

Fully Managed is convenient, but sometimes you lose out on some visibility. For example, the Redis slowlog is not easily viewable from the aws console. You have to consistently poll it with a Redis client from say, a Lambda. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
