November 2025
General Availability for more tiers
The in-memory SKUs at 175 GB and 235 GB, Compute Optimized, Balanced, and Memory Optimized, are now GA. For a complete list of the status of SKUs, see Tiers and SKUs at a glance.
Scheduled maintenance windows (preview)
Using the Maintenance (Preview) item on the Resource menu, you can now define specific time windows when maintenance activities can occur on your Redis instances. For more information, see Azure Managed Redis scheduled maintenance (preview).
Reservations for caches
You can now purchase reservations for your Azure Managed Redis caches. For more information, see Prepay for Azure Managed Redis compute resources with reservations.
August 2025
Some features that were previous in Public Preview have are now generally available (GA) for you to use.
- Scaling a cache (GA)
- Data persistence (GA)
- Non-clustered clustering policy (GA)
May 2025
Azure Managed Redis General Availability (GA)
Azure Managed Redis is now generally available (GA) for you to create and to use managed caches. Azure Managed Redis offers significant advantages over the Basic, Standard, and Premium tiers of Azure Cache for Redis.
Certain features remain in Public Preview.
- Scaling a cache
- Data persistence
- Non-clustered caches
All in-memory tiers that use over 120 GB of storage are in Public Preview, including:
- Memory Optimized M150 and higher
- Balanced B150 and higher
- Compute Optimized X150 and higher
All Flash Optimized tiers are in Public Preview.
November 2024
Azure Managed Redis (preview)
Azure Managed Redis (preview) is now available to create and use managed caches. Azure Managed Redis runs on the Redis Enterprise stack, which offers significant advantages over the community edition of Redis.
Three tiers are for in-memory data:
- Memory Optimized Ideal for memory-intensive use cases that require a high memory-to-vCPU ratio (1:8) but don't need the highest throughput performance. It provides a lower price point for scenarios where less processing power or throughput is necessary, making it an excellent choice for development and testing environments.
- Balanced (Memory + Compute) Offers a balanced memory-to-vCPU (1:4) ratio, making it ideal for standard workloads. This tier provides a healthy balance of memory and compute resources.
- Compute Optimized Designed for performance-intensive workloads requiring maximum throughput, with a low memory-to-vCPU (1:2) ratio. It's ideal for applications that demand the highest performance.
One tier stores data both in-memory and on-disk:
- Flash Optimized Enables Redis clusters to automatically move less frequently accessed data from memory (RAM) to NVMe storage. This reduces performance, but allows for cost-effective scaling of caches with large datasets.
