2021/04/07 - Amazon ElastiCache - 8 updated api methods
Changes This release adds tagging support for all AWS ElastiCache resources except Global Replication Groups.
{'Tags': [{'Key': 'string', 'Value': 'string'}]}
Makes a copy of an existing snapshot.
You could receive the following error messages.
Error Messages
Error Message: The S3 bucket %s is outside of the region. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: The S3 bucket %s does not exist. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: The S3 bucket %s is not owned by the authenticated user. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: The authenticated user does not have sufficient permissions to perform the desired activity. Solution: Contact your system administrator to get the needed permissions.
Error Message: The S3 bucket %s already contains an object with key %s. Solution: Give the TargetSnapshotName a new and unique value. If exporting a snapshot, you could alternatively create a new Amazon S3 bucket and use this same value for TargetSnapshotName.
Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted READ permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add List and Read permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted WRITE permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add Upload/Delete permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.
Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted READ_ACP permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add View Permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide.

string
[REQUIRED]
The name of an existing snapshot from which to make a copy.
string
[REQUIRED]
A name for the snapshot copy. ElastiCache does not permit overwriting a snapshot, therefore this name must be unique within its context - ElastiCache or an Amazon S3 bucket if exporting.
string
The Amazon S3 bucket to which the snapshot is exported. This parameter is used only when exporting a snapshot for external access.
When using this parameter to export a snapshot, be sure Amazon ElastiCache has the needed permissions to this S3 bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the Amazon ElastiCache User Guide.
For more information, see Exporting a Snapshot in the Amazon ElastiCache User Guide.
string
The ID of the KMS key used to encrypt the target snapshot.
list
A list of tags to be added to this resource. A tag is a key-value pair. A tag key must be accompanied by a tag value, although null is accepted.
(dict) --
A tag that can be added to an ElastiCache cluster or replication group. Tags are composed of a Key/Value pair. You can use tags to categorize and track all your ElastiCache resources, with the exception of global replication group. When you add or remove tags on replication groups, those actions will be replicated to all nodes in the replication group. A tag with a null Value is permitted.
Key (string) --
The key for the tag. May not be null.
Value (string) --
The tag's value. May be null.

Creates a new Amazon ElastiCache cache parameter group. An ElastiCache cache parameter group is a collection of parameters and their values that are applied to all of the nodes in any cluster or replication group using the CacheParameterGroup.
A newly created CacheParameterGroup is an exact duplicate of the default parameter group for the CacheParameterGroupFamily. To customize the newly created CacheParameterGroup you can change the values of specific parameters. For more information, see:
ModifyCacheParameterGroup in the ElastiCache API Reference.
Parameters and Parameter Groups in the ElastiCache User Guide.

Creates a new cache security group. Use a cache security group to control access to one or more clusters.
Cache security groups are only used when you are creating a cluster outside of an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC). If you are creating a cluster inside of a VPC, use a cache subnet group instead. For more information, see CreateCacheSubnetGroup.

ReservedCacheNode (dict) --
Represents the output of a PurchaseReservedCacheNodesOffering operation.

The following node types are supported by ElastiCache. Generally speaking, the current generation types provide more memory and computational power at lower cost when compared to their equivalent previous generation counterparts.
General purpose:
Current generation: M6g node types (available only for Redis engine version 5.0.6 onward and for Memcached engine version 1.5.16 onward). cache.m6g.large, cache.m6g.xlarge, cache.m6g.2xlarge, cache.m6g.4xlarge, cache.m6g.8xlarge, cache.m6g.12xlarge, cache.m6g.16xlarge
Previous generation: (not recommended) T1 node types: cache.t1.micro M1 node types: cache.m1.small, cache.m1.medium, cache.m1.large, cache.m1.xlarge M3 node types: cache.m3.medium, cache.m3.large, cache.m3.xlarge, cache.m3.2xlarge
Compute optimized:
Previous generation: (not recommended) C1 node types: cache.c1.xlarge
Memory optimized:
Current generation: R6g node types (available only for Redis engine version 5.0.6 onward and for Memcached engine version 1.5.16 onward). cache.r6g.large, cache.r6g.xlarge, cache.r6g.2xlarge, cache.r6g.4xlarge, cache.r6g.8xlarge, cache.r6g.12xlarge, cache.r6g.16xlarge
Previous generation: (not recommended) M2 node types: cache.m2.xlarge, cache.m2.2xlarge, cache.m2.4xlarge R3 node types: cache.r3.large, cache.r3.xlarge, cache.r3.2xlarge, cache.r3.4xlarge, cache.r3.8xlarge
Additional node type info
All current generation instance types are created in Amazon VPC by default.
Redis append-only files (AOF) are not supported for T1 or T2 instances.
Redis Multi-AZ with automatic failover is not supported on T1 instances.
Redis configuration variables appendonly and appendfsync are not supported on Redis version 2.8.22 and later.
