Redis on Fargate vs ElastiCache

Nobody has claimed this yet.

Could you provide some explanation on the differences in running Redis on Fargate as in this example, or using the same Spring Boot application with ElastiCache (AWS-managed Redis)? Is there any documentation on this, or articles discussing the benefits and tradeoffs?

Actually I'm a bit confused whether this example is showing running Redis in Fargate or via ElastiCache. There is a CloudFormation template for ElastiCache, but the `fargate_metadata.json` seems to refer to Redis as a Fargate image.

Could you give an explanation on which approach this example uses to access Redis, and what factors should be considered when choosing between Redis on Fargate vs ElastiCache?

Start by comparing the CloudFormation template for ElastiCache with fargate_metadata.json, which appears to refer to Redis as a Fargate image. Trace how the Spring Boot application accesses Redis in this example. Done means the documentation clearly identifies the deployed approach and explains the relevant benefits and tradeoffs of Fargate-hosted Redis versus ElastiCache.
