Basic
A single node cache is a single node cache which is ideal for development/test and non-critical workloads. There's no SLA on basic tier. Network isolation is available through Azure Private Link integration.
Cache Name | Cache Size | Network performance | Number of Client Connections | Price |
---|---|---|---|---|
C0 | 250 MB | Low | 256 | $- |
C1 | 1 GB | Low | 1,000 | $- |
C2 | 2.5 GB | Moderate | 2,000 | $- |
C3 | 6 GB | Moderate | 5,000 | $- |
C4 | 13 GB | Moderate | 10,000 | $- |
C5 | 26 GB | High | 15,000 | $- |
C6 | 53 GB | Highest | 20,000 | $- |
Standard
By default, a replicated cache is a two-node primary/secondary configuration. We manage automatic replication between the nodes to offer a high-availability SLA. Network isolation is available through Azure Private Link integration.
Cache Name | Cache Size | Network performance | Number of Client Connections | Price (two-node) |
---|---|---|---|---|
C0 | 250 MB | Low | 256 | $- |

C6 | 53 GB | Highest | 20,000 | $- |
Premium
Premium tier includes all the standard-tier features and more, such as better performance over basic or standard-tier caches, bigger workloads, disaster recovery, and enhanced security. Additional features include:
- Redis persistence allows you to persist data stored in Redis cache. You can also take snapshots and back up the data which you can load in case of a failure.
- Redis Cluster automatically shards data across up to ten Redis nodes, so you can create larger workloads (up to 1.2 TB) and get better performance.
- Azure Virtual Network deployment provides enhanced security and isolation for your Azure Cache for Redis, as well as subnets, access control policies, and other features to further restrict access.
- Multi-replica support allows up to three replica nodes to be created per cache or shard, expanding the reliability of the cache. Replicas can be created in the same datacenter or across availability zones. Reserve pricing is available for additional replica nodes, although data transfers between availability zones are subject to applicable networking charges.
Cache Name | Cache Size | Network performance | Number of Client Connections | Pay As You Go (Per Shard, Two Node) | 1 Year Reserved (% Savings) | 3 Year Reserved (% Savings) | Pay as You Go Price per additional node |

EnterprisePreview
The Enterprise tier integrates powerful capabilities from Redis Labs' Redis Enterprise software to provide a high-performance option that will meet the needs of the most demanding enterprise. Whether creating a new app or migrating an existing Redis Enterprise instance, this tier offers important features like:
- Redis Module support for RediSearch, RedisBloom, and RedisTimeSeries. These modules add data types that unlock new data analysis, machine learning, stream analytics, and IoT use cases.
- Higher availability (up to 99.99 percent) for enterprise-level reliability and peace of mind.
Cache Name | Cache Size | Network performance |
---|---|---|
E10 | 12 GB | Moderate |
E20 | 25 GB | Moderate |
E50 | 50 GB | High |
E100 | 100 GB | Highest |
Enterprise FlashPreview
The Enterprise Flash runs on flash non-volatile memory storage. While taking a small but often negligible performance hit, this setup enables massive cache sizes—up to 13 TB with clustering. The use of flash storage also offers a lower price per GB that unlocks cost savings at scale. This tier also features higher availability—up to 99.99 percent.
Cache Name | Cache Size | Network performance |
---|---|---|
F300 | 384 GB | High |
F700 | 768 GB | Highest |
F1,500 | 1,536 GB | Highest |
Zone RedundancyPreview
Caches in the Premium, Enterprise, and Enterprise flash tiers are capable of hosting replica nodes in different availability zones (AZs), increasing availability and resiliency against a single point of failure. If the primary datacenter were to fail, the cache would automatically fail over to the paired replica cache in the matching availability zone. With multi-AZ redundancy and using at least two replicas, availability increases to up to 99.95%.
The number of additional replica nodes needed depends on your clustering and replica configuration. Learn more in our documentation guide. In addition to paying the standard charges for the primary and the replica cache nodes, you will also pay some charges for the data transfer between AZs. Geo-replication is not yet available in conjunction with zone redundancy.
Geo-replication
Geo-replication, when enabled, allows two separate Azure Cache for Redis instances across Azure regions to be linked together in a primary/replica relationship. The service maintains the linked primary and replica cache instances in sync. You can read from or write to the primary cache instance, but you can only read from the replica cache instance. In addition to paying the standard charges for the primary and the replica cache instances, you will also pay some charges for the data transfer between regions. Geo-replication is only available on the Azure Cache for Redis premium tier.
Support & SLA
- We provide technical support for all Azure services released to general availability, including Azure Cache for Redis, through Azure Support, starting at $29/month. Billing and subscription management support is provided at no cost.
- Service Level Agreement (SLA)—Azure Cache for Redis guarantees that a standard/premium cache will be available at least 99.9% of the time. Learn more about our SLA. The SLA only covers connectivity to the cache endpoints. The SLA does not cover protection from data loss. We recommend using Redis data persistence feature in the premium tier to increase resiliency against data loss.
- There's no SLA for basic tier.
