One of the fastest ways to get redis running on any infrastructure is to deploy this bosh release. It can also be deployed to Kubernetes using Quarks/cf-operator and a Helm chart.

• Concourse CI
• Pull requests will be automatically tested against a bosh-lite (see testflight-pr job)
• Discussions and CI notifications at #redis-boshrelease channel on https://slack.cloudfoundry.org

Deploy Redis cluster with pre-compiled releases to a BOSH director:

bosh -d redis deploy \ <(curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudfoundry-community/redis-boshrelease/master/manifests/redis.yml) 

Deploy Redis cluster with pre-compiled Docker images to Kubernetes that is running Quarks (cf-operator) in the same namespace:

helm upgrade --install --wait --namespace kubecf \ redis-deployment \ ./quarks/helm/redis 

This repository includes base manifests and operator files. They can be used for initial deployments and subsequently used for updating your deployments.

To deploy a 2-node cluster:

export BOSH_ENVIRONMENT=<alias> export BOSH_DEPLOYMENT=redis git clone https://github.com/cloudfoundry-community/redis-boshrelease.git bosh deploy redis-boshrelease/manifests/redis.yml 

If your BOSH does not have Credhub/Config Server, then remember --vars-store to allow generation of passwords and certificates.

bosh deploy redis-boshrelease/manifests/redis.yml --vars-store creds.yml 

If you have any errors about Instance group 'redis' references an unknown vm type 'default' or similar, there is a helper script to select a vm_type and network from your Cloud Config:

bosh deploy redis-boshrelease/manifests/redis.yml -o <(./manifests/operators/pick-from-cloud-config.sh) 

This is not a cluster_enabled redis deployment.

Redis Sentinel provides high availability for Redis. In this bosh release, you can include the redis-sentinel job to manage failover for 2 or more Redis instances in replication mode.

Note: Set "bind_static_ip" to true using the redis-sentinel job.

[...] instances: 3 jobs: [...] - name: redis release: redis properties: bind_static_ip: true password: ((redis_password) - name: redis-sentinel release: redis 

When new versions of redis-boshrelease are released the manifests/redis.yml file will be updated. This means you can easily git pull and bosh deploy to upgrade.

export BOSH_ENVIRONMENT=<alias> export BOSH_DEPLOYMENT=redis cd redis-boshrelease git pull cd - bosh deploy redis-boshrelease/manifests/redis.yml 

To create/upload/deploy local changes to this BOSH release use the create.yml operator:

bosh -d redis deploy manifests/redis.yml -o manifests/operators/create.yml
