"Setup Redis Cluster with JSON and Search Modules on AKS with Binami Redis Using Custom Image" is explained in the prevous post. We can use redis insight to connect to redis cluster on AKS to explore data and add or update data. Let's look at how we can setup redis insight on AKS in this post.
The expectation is to have redis insight connected to redis clsuter on aks as shown below.
We have discussed "Setting Up Azure Managed Redis with Terraform Using AzApi" , since direct terraform resources are not yet available until the pull request here is released. We used a PowerShell script to extract access key and output it from terraform output. In this post let's look at how to get the same steps with bash script instead of PowerShell and get the Azure Managed Redis deployed as shown below.
The new Azure Managed Redis can be deployed with balanced compute and memory with high availability, and useful modules such as RedisJson and RedisSearch. This is really a useful and good pricing options to use Redis as a managed service in Azure. Note that it is not the enterprise redis offering in Azure and managed redis for Azure has more flexible pricing options. However, terraform support for this is yet to be added and will be available in another month or so as per the pull request here. Let's see how to get a Azure Managed Redis deployed with terraform for no using AzAPI.
The expectaion is to have a deployed Azure Managed Redis as shown below.
We have discussed "Build Custom Docker Images with Redis Json and Search Module Support for deploying Bitnami Redis Cluster and Standalone in AKS" previously. We have cfreated a cutom redis cluster image including the redis modules json, search etc. In this post let's explore how to setup Redis cluster on AKS using binami helm chart, while using the custom built image. The usage of custom built image is required to have the json and search modules available as described in the post "Build Custom Docker Images with Redis Json and Search Module Support for deploying Bitnami Redis Cluster and Standalone in AKS".
Note that the redis cluster deployed to AKS or to kubernetes can be only accessed withing the kubernetes cluster. Therefore, only the apps deployed to AKS/kubernetes can only access the redis endpoint in redis cluster on AKS. For allowing local development with redis on AKS, we need to setup bitnami redis standalone mode, which we will discuss in a future post.
