Memorystore (Redis & Memcached)

Memorystore is Google Cloud's fully managed in-memory data store service. It supports two popular engines — Redis and Memcached — and provides sub-millisecond data access for caching, session management, leaderboards, and real-time analytics.

What Is Memorystore?

Memorystore provides fully managed instances of Redis and Memcached that run on Google's infrastructure:

• No infrastructure to manage — Google handles provisioning, patching, failover, and monitoring.
• Sub-millisecond latency — data is stored entirely in memory.
• VPC-native — instances are accessible only from within your VPC, ensuring network security.
• Automatic failover — Redis Standard tier provides high availability with automatic failover.
