Redis Cloud AWS Connectivity

This post details the comparison between AWS PrivateLink and VPC peering for connecting to Redis Cloud. It highlights PrivateLink as the recommended default for most deployments due to its enhanced security isolation, operational simplicity across accounts and CIDR ranges, and scoped connectivity. VPC peering is suggested for extremely latency-sensitive workloads where minimal network overhead is critical and network isolation is not a primary concern. Benchmarks indicate a small, measurable latency increase (under 50 µs) with PrivateLink, with no significant throughput impact for workloads below saturation. The post provides guidance on choosing between the two based on latency requirements, network isolation needs, and compliance mandates.

Connecting to Redis Cloud with AWS PrivateLink vs. VPC peering | Redis

6/10/2026

Introduces and compares AWS PrivateLink and VPC peering for Redis Cloud connectivity. Provides benchmark data on latency and throughput trade-offs for both methods across different topologies (single endpoint, OSS Cluster API). Recommends PrivateLink as the default for most use cases due to security and operational benefits, while positioning VPC peering for extreme latency-sensitive scenarios. Offers a decision-making framework based on network isolation requirements and latency targets.
