Dragonfly Cloud vs. AWS ElastiCache: Product Breakdown
Compare the differences between Dragonfly Cloud and AWS ElastiCache, focusing on pricing, performance, scalability, and unique features to optimize your in-memory data store needs.
Dragonfly Cloud: a drop-in ElastiCache replacement
Make the switch to boost performance by 25x and cut your bill by up to 80%. Dragonfly Cloud is AWS native so it's easy to migrate to the fastest, most efficient in-memory data store in the world.
Dragonfly Cloud vs. ElastiCache
Dragonfly is a drop-in Redis and ElastiCache replacement, meaning it uses the same APIs and is compatible with all of the same SDKs and tooling. Teams that switch to Dragonfly get huge performance gains and a simpler system to operate, all without changing code.
Ultra performant
Dragonfly delivers 25x the performance than ElastiCache and other Redis-based solutions
The power of modern cloud hardware can never be realized with legacy software. Dragonfly is optimized for modern cloud computing, delivering 25x more throughput and 12x lower snapshotting latency when compared to legacy in-memory data stores like Redis, making it easy to deliver the real-time experience your customers expect.
