Increasing read capacity - Amazon ElastiCache for Redis
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Increasing read capacity

To increase read capacity, add read replicas (up to a maximum of five) to your Redis replication group.

You can scale your Redis cluster’s read capacity using the ElastiCache console, the Amazon CLI, or the ElastiCache API. For more information, see Adding a read replica, for Redis (Cluster Mode Disabled) replication groups.
