DAT319: Airbnb's Journey from Self-Managed Redis to ElastiCache for Redis

At Airbnb, we use Redis extensively as an in-memory data store to reduce latency and provide sub-millisecond response for our website, search, images, payments, and more. We migrated our self-managed Redis environment from EC2 classic to fully-managed Amazon ElastiCache for Redis to reduce operational overhead and improve availability. Now, all our Redis is in an AWS managed service that provides multi-Availability Zone support, automatic failover, and maintenance. Attend this session to learn how we migrated our Redis environment while ensuring data integrity and zero downtime.
