How do I migrate Azure Cache for Redis to Azure Managed Redis?▼

Migrate Azure Cache for Redis to Azure Managed Redis by using ARM REST APIs and Python scripts to automate data migration, SKU selection, and DNS switching. This process requires minimal manual intervention to complete the end-to-end transition.

What's the best way to convert IaC templates when migrating to Azure Managed Redis?▼

Convert IaC templates for Azure Managed Redis by transforming ARM, Bicep, and Terraform configurations from ACR to AMR format. This ensures seamless integration into existing CI/CD pipelines after the migration.

How does SKU selection work for Azure Managed Redis migration?▼

SKU selection for Azure Managed Redis migration works by analyzing the size and performance metrics of your existing ACR cache to recommend the appropriate AMR SKU. This automated matching ensures optimal resource allocation.

Do I need Azure CLI to automate Redis migration to Azure Managed Redis?▼

Yes, you need Azure CLI installed alongside pypdf and pdfplumber to execute the Python migration operations and parse JSON responses. These dependencies are required to run the ARM REST API automation scripts.

Can I automate DNS switching when moving from Azure Cache for Redis to Azure Managed Redis?▼

Yes, you can automate DNS switching as part of the end-to-end migration from Azure Cache for Redis to Azure Managed Redis. The automation handles the DNS cutover to ensure traffic redirects to the new AMR instance.
