Azure Redis Cache is based on the popular open source Redis cache. It gives you access to a secure, dedicated Redis cache, managed by Microsoft and accessible from any application within Azure.
Azure Redis Cache is available in the following tiers:
- Basic - Single node
- Standard - A replicated cache in a two-node primary/secondary configuration managed by Microsoft, with a high-availability SLA.
- Premium - Can be clustered. Virtual Network deployment.
Replication Groups modeling:
Redis cache can have only one replication node.
Replication group will be modeled as SoftwareInstance with 'Microsoft Azure Redis Replication Group' type.
Links to resource group:
Redis cache created in the one region can be contained in the ResourceGroup from the other region.
