Amazon ElastiCache is Amazon Web Services' serverless, fully managed caching service with Valkey, Memcached, and Redis OSS compatibility. Engineering teams run low-latency cache workloads on it without operating their own Redis or Valkey fleets.
It competes in the managed in-memory data store market with Redis Cloud, Upstash Redis, and Dragonfly Cloud, which distinguish themselves from it on multi-threaded vertical scaling and bring-your-own-cloud deployment.
