Is a Password Required for Accessing an Instance? How Do I Set a Password?

A DCS Redis instance can be access with or without a password. You can directly access a DCS Redis instance through a Redis client without setting a password. However, for security purposes, you are advised to set a password for authentication and verification whenever possible. The password must be set when you create the instance.
A DCS Memcached instance can be access with or without a password. You can select any Memcached client that supports the Memcached text protocol and binary protocol based on specific application features. The password must be set when you create the instance.
To change the Redis instance access mode, or change or reset a password, see Managing Passwords.
