Amazon ElastiCache: Ultra-Low Latency That Smoothly Handles Traffic Spikes
“What I like most about Amazon ElastiCache is its extremely low-latency performance. It noticeably improves application response times by offloading frequent reads from the database, and it also handles traffic spikes smoothly.”
Simple to use, serverless Key-Value storage
“ElasticCache (for Redis) is simple to set up, reasonably priced, and very easy to use with modern development languages. The Redis version supports all the open-source features as well as clustering, upward scaling, and serverless architecture.”
Speedy solution for repeat requests
“It does what it says, response times have improved since implementing.”
