New features
Redis 8.6 on Redis Cloud Essentials
Redis 8.6 is now available for Redis Cloud Essentials databases in select regions.
Dynamic endpoints
Redis Cloud is gradually rolling out dynamic endpoints for all databases. You will be able to view both legacy static endpoints and dynamic endpoints when the feature is available for your account. Static endpoints will still work at this time, but they may be deprecated in the future.
Static endpoints on Redis Cloud start with redis-<port>.c<number> (or redis-<port>.internal.c<number> for the private endpoint). For example, a static endpoint might look like this:
redis-12345.c12345.us-east-1-mz.ec2.cloud.rlrcp.com
Dynamic endpoints on Redis Cloud always contain three words and a random number, and end in db.redis.io. For example, a dynamic endpoint might look like this:
horse-battery-staple-12345.db.redis.io
You can see the Dynamic endpoints for databases with both static and dynamic endpoints by expanding the Dynamic endpoints section in the General section of the Configuration tab.
We recommend slowly migrating connections to the dynamic endpoints. Moving connections from the static endpoints to the dynamic endpoints does not cause any downtime. See Applications that use legacy static endpoints for more information.
Redirect dynamic endpoints
You can redirect your dynamic endpoints to any Redis Cloud Pro database in the same account. Redirecting your dynamic endpoints lets you switch connections to your new database seamlessly through Redis Cloud without any code changes. See Redirect database endpoints for more information.
Enhancements
Metrics resolution updates
The metrics tab of a Redis Cloud database now displays database metrics at different levels of granularity depending on the selected time range. Short time ranges now show finer granularity for detailed investigation, and longer time ranges use aggregated intervals for clearer trend analysis. See Metric intervals for a list of available intervals and their corresponding resolutions.
To simplify the monitoring experience and ensure each time range provides meaningful insight, the 1 minute and 1 year ranges have been removed. The 1 year range has been replaced with a 3 month range.
