Designing and managing your own ElastiCache (Redis OSS) cluster
If you need fine-grained control over your ElastiCache cluster, you can choose to design your own cluster. ElastiCache enables you to operate a node-based cluster by choosing the node-type, number of nodes, and node placement across Amazon Availability Zones for your cluster. Since ElastiCache is a fully-managed service, it automatically manages hardware provisioning, monitoring, node replacements, and software patching for your cluster.
For information on setting up see Setting up ElastiCache. For details on managing, updating or deleting nodes or clusters, see Managing nodes in ElastiCache. For an overview of the major components of an Amazon ElastiCache deployment when you design your own ElastiCache cluster, see these key concepts.
