What differentiates Amazon ElastiCache from other similar products?

Amazon ElastiCache is a web service that makes it easy to set up, manage, and scale a distributed in-memory cache environment in the cloud. It improves the performance of web applications by retrieving data from fast, managed, in-memory caches, instead of relying entirely on slower disk-based databases.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Elasticsearch Pricing: It mainly depends on the instance types, the nature of workload (On-Demand Instances or Reserved Instances), and additional charges for optional features such as data transfer, data storage, and snapshots. You can check out the detailed pricing

What do you dislike most about this product?

You cannot limit the Client from accessing data stores via the AWS console. AWS infrastructure can be time-consuming. Most of the time, cache data is stored in the primary data store instead of the secondary. Default TTL is infinity

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Amazon Elasticache provides a fast in-memory data store for use as a database, cache, message broker, and queue. It stores ephemeral data in memory and gives a sub-millisecond response. Elasticache is used in real-time transactions, chat, BI and analytics, session store, gaming leaderboards, and cache
