Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    • GlobalReplicationGroup (dict) --

      Consists of a primary cluster that accepts writes and an associated secondary cluster that resides in a different Amazon region. The secondary cluster accepts only reads. The primary cluster automatically replicates updates to the secondary cluster.

      • The GlobalReplicationGroupIdSuffix represents the name of the Global datastore, which is what you use to associate a secondary cluster.
      • GlobalReplicationGroupId (string) --

        The name of the Global datastore

      • GlobalReplicationGroupDescription (string) --

        The optional description of the Global datastore

      • Status (string) --

        The status of the Global datastore

      • CacheNodeType (string) --

        The cache node type of the Global datastore

      • Engine (string) --

        The Elasticache engine. For Redis only.

      • EngineVersion (string) --

        The Elasticache Redis engine version.

      • Members (list) --

        The replication groups that comprise the Global datastore.

        • (dict) --

          A member of a Global datastore. It contains the Replication Group Id, the Amazon region and the role of the replication group.

          • ReplicationGroupId (string) --

            The replication group id of the Global datastore member.

          • ReplicationGroupRegion (string) --

            The Amazon region of the Global datastore member.

          • Role (string) --

            Indicates the role of the replication group, primary or secondary.

          • AutomaticFailover (string) --

            Indicates whether automatic failover is enabled for the replication group.

          • Status (string) --

            The status of the membership of the replication group.

      • ClusterEnabled (boolean) --

        A flag that indicates whether the Global datastore is cluster enabled.

      • GlobalNodeGroups (list) --

        Indicates the slot configuration and global identifier for each slice group.

        • (dict) --

          Indicates the slot configuration and global identifier for a slice group.

          • GlobalNodeGroupId (string) --

            The name of the global node group

          • Slots (string) --

            The keyspace for this node group

      • AuthTokenEnabled (boolean) --

        A flag that enables using an AuthToken (password) when issuing Redis commands.

        Default: false

      • TransitEncryptionEnabled (boolean) --

        A flag that enables in-transit encryption when set to true.

        Required: Only available when creating a replication group in an Amazon VPC using redis version 3.2.6 , 4.x or later.

      • AtRestEncryptionEnabled (boolean) --

        A flag that enables encryption at rest when set to true .

        You cannot modify the value of AtRestEncryptionEnabled after the replication group is created. To enable encryption at rest on a replication group you must set AtRestEncryptionEnabled to true when you create the replication group.

        Required: Only available when creating a replication group in an Amazon VPC using redis version 3.2.6 , 4.x or later.

      • ARN (string) --

        The ARN (Amazon Resource Name) of the global replication group.
