ElastiCache and Memorystore connections are off by default; an administrator turns them on. See [Connect clusters](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/radar/connect).\n- Five dedicated views: **Overview**, **Clusters**, **Databases**, **Usage**, and **Alerts**. See [Monitor clusters and databases](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/radar/monitor).\n- A cross-cluster **Databases** list, so you can find a database without knowing which cluster it lives on, including Active-Active replication health.\n- **Usage** tracking for Redis Software: memory, ops/sec, and shard consumption against licensed limits.\n- **Alerts** aggregated from every connected Redis Software cluster and node, ordered by severity, with rules that stay owned by the cluster."
