Azure Managed Redis Monitoring Integration
Azure Cache for Redis is a fully managed, in-memory cache that enables high-performance and scalable architectures. Use this service to create a cache that provides high throughput and low-latency access to data by applications.
With Site24x7's integration with Azure Managed Redis, you can now monitor your Redis cache, configure thresholds, and receive alerts about critical issues.
Setup and configuration
You can add Azure Managed Redis while adding a new monitor or you can add it to an existing Azure monitor. Follow these steps to add the Azure Managed Redis service.
Supported metrics

| Cache Hits | The number of successful key lookups in the cache | Total | Count |
| Cache Misses | The number of failed key lookups in the cache | Total | Count |
| Evicted Keys | The number of items evicted from the cache | Total | Count |
| Expired Keys | The number of items expired from the cache | Total | Count |
| Operations per Second | The number of operations processed per second by the cache server | Maximum | Count/Second |
| Total Keys | The total number of keys in the cache | Maximum | Count |
| Server Load | The percentage of cycles in which the Redis server is busy processing | Maximum | Percent |
| CPU | The CPU utilization of the Redis server as a percentage | Maximum | Percent |
Configuration details
The following configuration details are collected and displayed:
| Configuration parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| High Availability Status | Indicates whether high availability is enabled for the Redis cache |
| Host Name | The hostname of the Redis cache instance |
| Minimum TLS Version | The minimum TLS version required for client connections |
| Provisioning State | The current provisioning state of the Redis cache |

Threshold configuration
Global configuration
- Go to the Admin section in the left navigation pane.
- Select Configuration Profiles from the left pane and choose the Threshold and Availability (+) tab from the drop-down menu. Click Add Threshold Profile from the top-right corner.
- Set the monitor type as Azure Managed Redis. You can now set the threshold values for all the metrics mentioned above.
Monitor-level configuration
- Go to Cloud > Azure and select Azure Managed Redis from the drop-down menu.
- Choose a resource for which you would like to set a threshold, then click the hamburger
icon. Select Edit, which will direct you to the Edit Azure Managed Redis Monitor page. - You can set the threshold values for the metrics by selecting Threshold and Availability. You can also configure IT Automation at the attribute level.
