ElasticacheRedis

A Redis cluster running on AWS's Elasticache service.

Like all Resources, this class configures itself across multiple Environments.

For more information see the official documentation.

NOTE: This resource can only be accessed from within the same VPC it is created in. Use EC2Redis to create a Redis instance that can be accessed from outside the VPC.
