Is Cachee a Redis Enterprise replacement?

Cachee replaces Redis Enterprise for pure caching workloads at 65% lower cost. For teams using Redis Enterprise modules (RediSearch, RedisJSON, RedisTimeSeries), Cachee deploys as an L1 layer in front — accelerating reads to 1.5µs while Redis Enterprise handles module-specific operations as L2.

How much faster is Cachee than Redis Enterprise?

Cachee L1 cache hits resolve in 1.5µs from in-process memory. Redis Enterprise, despite its managed infrastructure, still requires a network roundtrip at ~200µs. Cachee is approximately 133× faster for cached reads, plus its AI pre-warming pushes hit rates from ~85-92% to 99.05%.

What Redis Enterprise features does Cachee not support?

Cachee focuses on caching, not data store modules. Redis Enterprise's proprietary modules — RediSearch (full-text search), RedisJSON (document store), RedisGraph (graph database), RedisTimeSeries — are not available through Cachee. For those, keep Redis Enterprise as your L2 backend with Cachee as the L1 cache in front.

How much does Redis Enterprise cost compared to Cachee?

Redis Enterprise starts at $388/month for the C250 tier (25K ops/sec cap) and scales to $1,553+/month for C1000. Additional costs for modules, support tiers, and overage fees. Cachee's Scale plan is $149/month with unlimited operations, AI optimization, and built-in monitoring — 65% less than Redis Enterprise's entry tier.

Can I use Cachee with Redis Enterprise?

Yes — Cachee works as an L1 layer in front of Redis Enterprise. Point Cachee's upstream at your Redis Enterprise cluster. Reads hit Cachee's L1 at 1.5µs with AI pre-warming. Cache misses fall through to Redis Enterprise. This lets you leverage Redis Enterprise's modules while getting Cachee's AI-powered caching speed.

When to use what: Redis Enterprise's value prop is managed Redis with proprietary modules (RediSearch, RedisJSON). If you need those modules, use Redis Enterprise as your L2 backend. But for pure caching — the 90%+ of operations that are GET/SET/TTL — Cachee's AI-powered L1 is 133× faster at 65% lower cost.

Migration: Use Cachee as L1 in Front of Redis Enterprise

Zero-risk deployment: Keep your Redis Enterprise cluster for modules and persistence. Cachee intercepts reads at 1.5µs and falls through to Redis Enterprise on miss. You get AI-powered caching performance without changing your Redis Enterprise deployment.

Premium Performance, Not Premium Pricing

Deploy Cachee as an AI L1 layer. 1.5µs hits, 99.05% hit rate, 65% less than Redis Enterprise.
