From azure
Expert knowledge for Azure Managed Redis development including troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. Use when using Entra auth, geo-replication, persistence, Private Link, or ARM/Bicep deployments for Azure Managed Redis, and other Azure Managed Redis related development tasks. Not for Azure Cache for Redis (use azure-cache-redis), Azure Cosmos DB (use azure-cosmos-db), Azure Table Storage (use azure-table-storage).

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Managed Redis. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.
Manages Azure Cache for Redis instances using .NET Azure.ResourceManager.Redis SDK: create caches, firewall rules, access keys, patch schedules, geo-replication, private endpoints.
Provisions and manages Azure Cache for Redis using .NET SDK: create caches, firewall rules, access keys, geo-replication. For ARM management plane ops, not data plane.
Guides Redis system design: data structures for caching, queues, leaderboards, sessions; caching strategies, pub/sub, streams, clustering, memory optimization, Lua scripting.
