Available

Fully managed Redis — for caching, session storage, queues, rate limiting and pub/sub. Provisioned in seconds, with TLS on the public endpoint and zero exposure on the internal one.

Pick the major version when you create the instance.

From the dashboard: pick a project, choose the major version and the memory plan, hit create. Provisioning takes a few seconds.

When the instance is ready, the dashboard shows the password and both connection URLs. Copy them now — the password is shown once and can’t be retrieved later. If you lose it, you’ll need to delete and recreate the instance.

Memory is set at creation time based on the plan you pick. Memory size is fixed for the life of the instance — to change it, create a new instance on a different plan and migrate your keys.

  • Dashboard — what each tab does.
  • Backups — on-demand snapshots and restore.

Need a relational database?

If your data is rows and tables instead of keys and values, use PostgreSQL instead.
