# Amazon ElastiCache

> Managed caching compatible with Valkey, Memcached, and Redis OSS

Amazon ElastiCache is a managed caching service for applications that need fast access to frequently used data. It supports Valkey, Memcached, and Redis OSS, letting developers use familiar client libraries and data structures. Teams can cache database results, store user sessions, and maintain leaderboards to reduce repeated database work and improve response times.

ElastiCache offers a serverless option that adjusts capacity as demand changes, alongside clusters with configurable nodes. AWS handles routine maintenance, monitoring, and failure recovery, while encryption, network isolation, and access controls help protect cached information. Developers connect their applications to a cache endpoint and use CloudWatch metrics to track memory, connections, and cache performance. Supported Valkey configurations also provide vector search for semantic caching and AI application memory.
