Redis-specific parameters
If you do not specify a parameter group for your Redis cluster, then a default parameter group appropriate to your engine version will be used. You can't change the values of any parameters in the default parameter group. However, you can create a custom parameter group and assign it to your cluster at any time as long as the values of conditionally modifiable parameters are the same in both parameter groups. For more information, see Creating a parameter group .

Redis 7 parameter changes
Parameter group family: redis7
Redis 7 default parameter groups are as follows:
default.redis7
– Use this parameter group, or one
derived from it, for Redis (cluster mode disabled) clusters and replication groups.
default.redis7.cluster.on
– Use this parameter group,
or one derived from it, for Redis (cluster mode enabled) clusters and replication
groups.
Parameters added in Redis 7 are as follows.
Changes take effect: Immediately across all nodes in the cluster.
When set to the default of yes, allows nodes to serve pubsub shard traffic while the cluster is in a down state, as long as it believes it owns the slots.
Changes take effect: Immediately across all nodes in the cluster.
This value controls what endpoint is returned for
MOVED/ASKING requests as well as the endpoint field for
CLUSTER SLOTS
and

.
When the value is set to ip, the node will advertise its ip
address. When the value is set to tls-dynamic, the node will
advertise a hostname when encryption-in-transit is enabled and
an ip address otherwise.
Changes take effect: Immediately across all nodes in the cluster.

Note
In Redis engine version 6.2, when the r6gd node family was introduced for use with Data tiering , only noeviction , volatile-lru and allkeys-lru max-memory policies are supported with r6gd node types.
For more information, see ElastiCache for Redis version 6.2 (enhanced) and ElastiCache for Redis version 6.0 (enhanced) .
Parameters added in Redis 6.x are as follows.
Modifiable: Yes
Changes take effect: The existing Redis users associated to the cluster will continue to have existing permissions. Either update the users or reboot the cluster to update the existing Redis users.
Default pubsub channel permissions for ACL users deployed to this cluster.
Changes take effect: Immediately across all nodes in the cluster
When set to yes, a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group continues to process read commands even when a node is not able to reach a quorum of primaries.
When set to the default of no, the replication group rejects all commands. We recommend setting this value to yes if you are using a cluster with fewer than three node groups or your application can safely handle stale reads.
Changes take effect: Immediately across all nodes in the cluster
To assist client-side caching, Redis supports tracking which clients have accessed which keys.
When the tracked key is modified, invalidation messages are sent to all clients to notify them their cached values are no longer valid. This value enables you to specify the upper bound of this table. After this parameter value is exceeded, clients are sent invalidation randomly. This value should be tuned to limit memory usage while still keeping track of enough keys. Keys are also invalidated under low memory conditions.
Changes take effect: Immediately across all nodes in the cluster
This value corresponds to the max number of entries in the ACL log.
Changes take effect: Immediately across all nodes in the cluster
Redis deletes keys that have exceeded their time to live by two mechanisms. In one, a key is accessed and is found to be expired. In the other, a periodic job samples keys and causes those that have exceeded their time to live to expire. This parameter defines the amount of effort that Redis uses to expire items in the periodic job.
The default value of 1 tries to avoid having more than 10 percent of expired keys still in memory. It also tries to avoid consuming more than 25 percent of total memory and to add latency to the system. You can increase this value up to 10 to increase the amount of effort spent on expiring keys. The tradeoff is higher CPU and potentially higher latency. We recommend a value of 1 unless you are seeing high memory usage and can tolerate an increase in CPU utilization.
Changes take effect: Immediately across all nodes in the cluster
When the value is set to yes, the
DEL
command
acts the same as
UNLINK
.
default.redis5.0
– Use this parameter group, or one
derived from it, for Redis (cluster mode disabled) clusters and replication groups.
default.redis5.0.cluster.on
– Use this parameter
group, or one derived from it, for Redis (cluster mode enabled) clusters and replication
groups.

Redis 3.2.10 parameter changes
Parameter group family: redis3.2
ElastiCache for Redis 3.2.10 there are no additional parameters supported.
Redis 3.2.6 parameter changes
Parameter group family: redis3.2
For Redis 3.2.6 there are no additional parameters supported.
Redis 3.2.4 parameter changes
Parameter group family: redis3.2
Beginning with Redis 3.2.4 there are two default parameter groups.
default.redis3.2
– When running Redis 3.2.4, specify
this parameter group or one derived from it, if you want to create a
Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group and still use the additional features of
Redis 3.2.4.
default.redis3.2.cluster.on
– Specify this parameter
group or one derived from it, when you want to create a Redis (cluster mode enabled)
replication group.
New parameters for Redis 3.2.4
Parameter group family: redis3.2
For Redis 3.2.4 the following additional parameters are supported.
Default: no/yes *
Type: string
Modifiable: No
When set to
yes
, Redis (cluster mode enabled) nodes in
cluster mode stop accepting queries if they detect there is
at least one hash slot uncovered (no available node is
serving it). This way if the cluster is partially down, the
cluster becomes unavailable. It automatically becomes
available again as soon as all the slots are covered
again.
However, sometimes you want the subset of the cluster
which is working to continue to accept queries for the part
of the key space that is still covered. To do so, just set
the
cluster-require-full-coverage
option to
The percent of a node's memory reserved for nondata use. By default, the Redis data footprint grows until it consumes all of the node's memory. If this occurs, then node performance will likely suffer due to excessive memory paging. By reserving memory, you can set aside some of the available memory for non-Redis purposes to help reduce the amount of paging.
This parameter is specific to ElastiCache, and is not part of the standard Redis distribution.
For more information, see
reserved-memory
and
Managing Reserved Memory
.
Parameter group family: redis2.8
For Redis 2.8.24 there are no additional parameters supported.
Redis 2.8.23 (enhanced) added parameters
Parameter group family: redis2.8
For Redis 2.8.23 the following additional parameter is supported.
How close-on-slave-write works
The
close-on-slave-write
parameter is introduced by Amazon ElastiCache to
give you more control over how your cluster responds when a primary node and a
read replica node swap roles due to promoting a read replica to primary.
If the read-replica cluster is promoted to primary for any reason other than a
Multi-AZ enabled replication group failing over, the client will continue trying
to write to endpoint A. Because endpoint A is now the endpoint for a
read-replica, these writes will fail. This is the behavior for Redis before
ElastiCache introducing
close-on-replica-write
and the behavior if you
disable
close-on-replica-write
.
With
close-on-replica-write
enabled, any time a client attempts
to write to a read-replica, the client connection to the cluster is closed. Your
application logic should detect the disconnection, check the DNS table, and
reconnect to the primary endpoint, which now would be endpoint B.
When you might disable close-on-replica-write
If disabling
close-on-replica-write
results in writes to the
failing cluster, why disable
close-on-replica-write
?
As previously mentioned, with
close-on-replica-write
enabled, any
time a client attempts to write to a read-replica the client connection to the
cluster is closed. Establishing a new connection to the node takes time. Thus,
disconnecting and reconnecting as a result of a write request to the replica
also affects the latency of read requests that are served through the same
connection. This effect remains in place until a new connection is established.
If your application is especially read-heavy or very latency-sensitive, you
might keep your clients connected to avoid degrading read performance.
Parameter group family: redis2.8
For Redis 2.8.22 there are no additional parameters supported.
Important
Beginning with Redis version 2.8.22,
repl-backlog-size
applies to the primary cluster as well as to replica clusters.
Beginning with Redis version 2.8.22, the
repl-timeout
parameter is not supported. If it is changed, ElastiCache will overwrite with
the default (60s), as we do with
appendonly
.
The following parameters are no longer supported.
Parameter group family: redis2.8
For Redis 2.8.21, there are no additional parameters supported.
Redis 2.8.19 added parameters
Parameter group family: redis2.8
For Redis 2.8.19 there are no additional parameters supported.
Redis 2.8.6 added parameters
Parameter group family: redis2.8
For Redis 2.8.6 the following additional parameters are supported.
Modifiable: Yes
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
The total memory, in bytes, reserved for non-data usage. By
default, the Redis node will grow until it consumes the node's
maxmemory
(see
Redis node-type specific
parameters
). If
this occurs, then node performance will likely suffer due to
excessive memory paging. By reserving memory you can set aside
some of the available memory for non-Redis purposes to help
reduce the amount of paging.
This parameter is specific to ElastiCache, and is not part of the standard Redis distribution.
For more information, see
reserved-memory-percent
and
Managing Reserved Memory
.
Note
If you do not specify a parameter group for your Redis 2.6.13 cluster, then a
default parameter group (
default.redis2.6
) will be used. You cannot
change the values of any parameters in the default parameter group; however, you
can always create a custom parameter group and assign it to your cluster at any
time.
Redis node-type specific parameters
Although most parameters have a single value, some parameters have different
values depending on the node type used. The following table shows the default values
for the
maxmemory
,
client-output-buffer-limit-slave-hard-limit
, and
client-output-buffer-limit-slave-soft-limit
parameters for each
node type. The value of
maxmemory
is the maximum number of bytes
available to you for use, data and other uses, on the node. For more information,
see
Available memory
Note
The
maxmemory
parameter cannot be modified.

maxmemory-policy
was added in version 2.6.13. In
version 4.0.10 two new permitted values are added:
allkeys-lfu
, which will evict any key using
approximated LFU, and

Lists may also be compressed. Compress depth is the number of
quicklist ziplist nodes from each side of the list to exclude
from compression. The head and tail of the list are always
uncompressed for fast push and pop operations. Settings are:
1: Start compressing with the 1st node in from the head and tail. [head]->node->node->...->node->[tail] All nodes except [head] and [tail] compress. 2: Start compressing with the 2nd node in from the head and tail. [head]->[next]->node->node->...->node->[prev]->[tail] [head], [next], [prev], [tail] do not compress. All other nodes compress. |
cluster-enabled
|
Indicates whether this is a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group in cluster mode (yes) or a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group in non-cluster mode (no). Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication groups in cluster mode can partition their data across up to 500 node groups. * Redis 3.2. x has two default parameter groups.

Default: no Type: boolean Modifiable: yes Changes Take Effect: Immediately |
hll-sparse-max-bytes
|
Default: 3000 Type: integer Modifiable: Yes Changes Take Effect: Immediately |
HyperLogLog sparse representation bytes limit. The limit includes the 16 byte header. When a HyperLogLog using the sparse representation crosses this limit, it is converted into the dense representation. A value greater than 16000 is not recommended, because at that point the dense representation is more memory efficient. We recommend a value of about 3000 to have the benefits of the space-efficient encoding without slowing down PFADD too much, which is O(N) with the sparse encoding. The value can be raised to ~10000 when CPU is not a concern, but space is, and the data set is composed of many HyperLogLogs with cardinality in the 0 - 15000 range. |

Details | Description |
min-slaves-max-lag
|
Default: 10 Type: integer Modifiable: Yes Changes Take Effect: Immediately |
The number of seconds within which the primary node must receive a ping request from a read replica. If this amount of time passes and the primary does not receive a ping, then the replica is no longer considered available. If the number of available replicas drops below min-slaves-to-write, then the primary will stop accepting writes at that point. If either this parameter or min-slaves-to-write is 0, then the primary node will always accept writes requests, even if no replicas are available. |
min-slaves-to-write
|
Default: 0 Type: integer Modifiable: Yes Changes Take Effect: Immediately |
The minimum number of read replicas which must be available in order for the primary node to accept writes from clients. If the number of available replicas falls below this number, then the primary node will no longer accept write requests. If either this parameter or min-slaves-max-lag is 0, then the primary node will always accept writes requests, even if no replicas are available. |
notify-keyspace-events
|
Default: (an empty string) Type: string Modifiable: Yes Changes Take Effect: Immediately |
The types of keyspace events that Redis can notify clients of. Each event type is represented by a single letter: You can have any combination of these event types. For example, AKE means that Redis can publish notifications of all event types. Do not use any characters other than those listed above; attempts to do so will result in error messages. By default, this parameter is set to an empty string, meaning that keyspace event notification is disabled. |
repl-backlog-size
|
Default: 1048576 Type: integer Modifiable: Yes Changes Take Effect: Immediately |
The size, in bytes, of the primary node backlog buffer. The
backlog is used for recording updates to data at the primary
