Tair (Redis® OSS-Compatible):Do I need to use a password to connect to a Tair (Redis OSS-compatible) instance?

Last Updated:Mar 28, 2026

Tair (Redis OSS-compatible) requires password authentication by default. Two options are available: connect with a password, or enable password-free access within the same Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).

Connect with a password

Set a password when you create the instance, or change it later in the Tair console. See Change or reset the password.

Use password-free access

If your application is in the same VPC as the Tair instance, enable password-free access to allow connections without a password. See Enable password-free access.
