ApsaraDB for RedisApsaraDB for Redis now supports dynamic bandwidth throttling. When the bandwidth of shards is about to reach the upper limit but there are sufficient host resources, ApsaraDB for Redis scales out the instance to avoid bandwidth throttling. When the host resources are insufficient or the demand for bandwidth in the shards decreases, ApsaraDB for Redis automatically scales in the instance.

Target customers: all users of ApsaraDB for Redis. Features released: ApsaraDB for Redis now supports dynamic bandwidth throttling. When the bandwidth of shards is about to reach the upper limit but there are sufficient host resources, ApsaraDB for Redis scales out the instance to avoid bandwidth throttling. When the host resources are insufficient or the demand for bandwidth in the shards decreases, ApsaraDB for Redis automatically scales in the instance. This ensures the elasticity of your workloads in case of network traffic spikes. Before this feature is released, the bandwidth of ApsaraDB for Redis is limited to 96 Mbit/s per shard. If the bandwidth exceeds the upper limit, bandwidth throttling is triggered.
