Overview

This document takes the example of creating and connecting to a single-node Distributed Cache Service (DCS) Redis 5.0 instance to quickly get you started with DCS.

Process

Figure 1 Using DCS
  1. Prepare instance dependencies.

    A DCS Redis instance runs in a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). Before creating an instance, ensure that a VPC and a subnet is available.

  2. Create a DCS Redis instance.

    When creating a DCS Redis instance, you can customize it with the required type and specifications, and configure a VPC and a subnet. The VPC and subnet cannot be changed for the created instance.

  3. Connect to the DCS Redis instance.

    You can access a DCS instance through any Redis client.
