2017/11/08 - Amazon ElastiCache - 1 new 5 updated api methods
Changes This release adds online resharding for ElastiCache for Redis offering, providing the ability to add and remove shards from a running cluster. Developers can now dynamically scale-out or scale-in their Redis cluster workloads to adapt to changes in demand. ElastiCache will resize the cluster by adding or removing shards and redistribute hash slots uniformly across the new shard configuration, all while the cluster continues to stay online and serves requests.
Performs horizontal scaling on a Redis (cluster mode enabled) cluster with no downtime. Requires Redis engine version 3.2.10 or newer. For information on upgrading your engine to a newer version, see Upgrading Engine Versions in the Amazon ElastiCache User Guide.

Creates a Redis (cluster mode disabled) or a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group.
A Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group is a collection of clusters, where one of the clusters is a read/write primary and the others are read-only replicas. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas.
A Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group is a collection of 1 to 15 node groups (shards). Each node group (shard) has one read/write primary node and up to 5 read-only replica nodes. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas. Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication groups partition the data across node groups (shards).
When a Redis (cluster mode disabled) replication group has been successfully created, you can add one or more read replicas to it, up to a total of 5 read replicas. You cannot alter a Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group after it has been created. However, if you need to increase or decrease the number of node groups (console: shards), you can avail yourself of ElastiCache for Redis' enhanced backup and restore. For more information, see Restoring From a Backup with Cluster Resizing in the ElastiCache User Guide .
Note
This operation is valid for Redis only.

Deletes an existing replication group. By default, this operation deletes the entire replication group, including the primary/primaries and all of the read replicas. If the replication group has only one primary, you can optionally delete only the read replicas, while retaining the primary by setting RetainPrimaryCluster=true .
When you receive a successful response from this operation, Amazon ElastiCache immediately begins deleting the selected resources; you cannot cancel or revert this operation.

Represents the input of a TestFailover operation which test automatic failover on a specified node group (called shard in the console) in a replication group (called cluster in the console).
Note the following
A customer can use this operation to test automatic failover on up to 5 shards (called node groups in the ElastiCache API and AWS CLI) in any rolling 24-hour period.
If calling this operation on shards in different clusters (called replication groups in the API and CLI), the calls can be made concurrently.
If calling this operation multiple times on different shards in the same Redis (cluster mode enabled) replication group, the first node replacement must complete before a subsequent call can be made.
To determine whether the node replacement is complete you can check Events using the Amazon ElastiCache console, the AWS CLI, or the ElastiCache API. Look for the following automatic failover related events, listed here in order of occurrance:
Replication group message: Test Failover API called for node group <node-group-id>
Cache cluster message: Failover from master node <primary-node-id> to replica node <node-id> completed
Replication group message: Failover from master node <primary-node-id> to replica node <node-id> completed
Cache cluster message: Recovering cache nodes <node-id>
Cache cluster message: Finished recovery for cache nodes <node-id>

Redis versions earlier than 2.8.6.
Redis (cluster mode disabled): T1 and T2 cache node types.
Redis (cluster mode enabled): T1 node types.
ConfigurationEndpoint (dict) --
The configuration endpoint for this replication group. Use the configuration endpoint to connect to this replication group.
Address (string) --
The DNS hostname of the cache node.
Port (integer) --
The port number that the cache engine is listening on.
SnapshotRetentionLimit (integer) --
The number of days for which ElastiCache retains automatic cluster snapshots before deleting them. For example, if you set SnapshotRetentionLimit to 5, a snapshot that was taken today is retained for 5 days before being deleted.
Warning
If the value of SnapshotRetentionLimit is set to zero (0), backups are turned off.
SnapshotWindow (string) --
The daily time range (in UTC) during which ElastiCache begins taking a daily snapshot of your node group (shard).
Example: 05:00-09:00
If you do not specify this parameter, ElastiCache automatically chooses an appropriate time range.
Note
This parameter is only valid if the Engine parameter is redis .
ClusterEnabled (boolean) --
A flag indicating whether or not this replication group is cluster enabled; i.e., whether its data can be partitioned across multiple shards (API/CLI: node groups).
Valid values: true | false
CacheNodeType (string) --
The name of the compute and memory capacity node type for each node in the replication group.
AuthTokenEnabled (boolean) --
A flag that enables using an AuthToken (password) when issuing Redis commands.
Default: false
TransitEncryptionEnabled (boolean) --
A flag that enables in-transit encryption when set to true .
You cannot modify the value of TransitEncryptionEnabled after the cluster is created. To enable in-transit encryption on a cluster you must set TransitEncryptionEnabled to true when you create a cluster.
Default: false
AtRestEncryptionEnabled (boolean) --
A flag that enables encryption at-rest when set to true .
You cannot modify the value of AtRestEncryptionEnabled after the cluster is created. To enable encryption at-rest on a cluster you must set AtRestEncryptionEnabled to true when you create a cluster.
Default: false
