# Bitnami Secure Image for Redis® Cluster
## What is Redis® Cluster?
> Redis® is an open source, scalable, distributed in-memory cache for applications. It can be used to store and serve data in the form of strings, hashes, lists, sets and sorted sets.
[Overview of Redis® Cluster](https://redis.io)
Disclaimer: Redis is a registered trademark of Redis Ltd. Any rights therein are reserved to Redis Ltd. Any use by Bitnami is for referential purposes only and does not indicate any sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation between Redis Ltd.
## TL;DR
```console
docker run --name redis-cluster -e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
## Why use Bitnami Secure Images?
Those are hardened, minimal CVE images built and maintained by Bitnami. Bitnami Secure Images are based on the cloud-optimized, security-hardened enterprise [OS Photon Linux](https://vmware.github.io/photon/). Why choose BSI images?
- Hardened secure images of popular open source software with Near-Zero Vulnerabilities
- Vulnerability Triage & Prioritization with VEX Statements, KEV and EPSS Scores
- Compliance focus with FIPS, STIG, and air-gap options, including secure bill of materials (SBOM)
- Software supply chain provenance attestation through in-toto
- First class support for the internets favorite Helm charts
Each image comes with valuable security metadata. You can view the metadata in [our public catalog here](https://app-catalog.vmware.com/bitnami/apps). Note: Some data is only available with [commercial subscriptions to BSI](https://bitnami.com/).

If you are looking for our previous generation of images based on Debian Linux, please see the [Bitnami Legacy registry](https://hub.docker.com/u/bitnamilegacy).
## How to deploy Redis(R) Cluster in Kubernetes?
Deploying Bitnami applications as Helm Charts is the easiest way to get started with our applications on Kubernetes. Read more about the installation in the [Bitnami Redis(R) Cluster Chart GitHub repository](https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/redis-cluster).
## Supported tags and respective `Dockerfile` links
Learn more about the Bitnami tagging policy and the difference between rolling tags and immutable tags [in our documentation page](https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/vmware-tanzu/application-catalog/tanzu-application-catalog/services/tac-doc/apps-tutorials-understand-rolling-tags-containers-index.html).
You can see the equivalence between the different tags by taking a look at the `tags-info.yaml` file present in the branch folder, i.e `bitnami/ASSET/BRANCH/DISTRO/tags-info.yaml`.
Subscribe to project updates by watching the [bitnami/containers GitHub repo](https://github.com/bitnami/containers).
## Get this image
The recommended way to get the Bitnami Redis(R) Cluster Docker Image is to pull the prebuilt image from the [Docker Hub Registry](https://hub.docker.com/r/bitnami/redis-cluster).
```console
docker pull bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
To use a specific version, you can pull a versioned tag. You can view the [list of available versions](https://hub.docker.com/r/bitnami/redis-cluster/tags/) in the Docker Hub Registry.
```console
docker pull bitnami/redis-cluster:[TAG]
```
If you wish, you can also build the image yourself by cloning the repository, changing to the directory containing the Dockerfile and executing the `docker build` command. Remember to replace the `APP`, `VERSION` and `OPERATING-SYSTEM` path placeholders in the example command below with the correct values.
```console
git clone https://github.com/bitnami/containers.git
cd bitnami/APP/VERSION/OPERATING-SYSTEM
docker build -t bitnami/APP:latest .
```
## Persisting your application
If you remove the container all your data will be lost, and the next time you run the image the database will be reinitialized. To avoid this loss of data, you should mount a volume that will persist even after the container is removed.
For persistence you should mount a directory at the `/bitnami` path. If the mounted directory is empty, it will be initialized on the first run.
```console
docker run \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
-v /path/to/redis-cluster-persistence:/bitnami \
bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
You can also do this with a minor change to the [`docker-compose.yml`](https://github.com/bitnami/containers/blob/main/bitnami/redis-cluster/docker-compose.yml) file present in this repository:
```yaml
redis-cluster:
...
volumes:
- /path/to/redis-cluster-persistence:/bitnami
...
```
## Connecting to other containers
Using [Docker container networking](https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/networking/), a different server running inside a container can easily be accessed by your application containers and vice-versa.
Containers attached to the same network can communicate with each other using the container name as the hostname.
### Using the Command Line
#### Step 1: Create a network
```console
docker network create redis-cluster-network --driver bridge
```
#### Step 2: Launch the Redis(R) Cluster container within your network
Use the `--network <NETWORK>` argument to the `docker run` command to attach the container to the `redis-cluster-network` network.
```console
docker run -e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes --name redis-cluster-node1 --network redis-cluster-network bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
#### Step 3: Run another containers
We can launch another containers using the same flag (`--network NETWORK`) in the `docker run` command. If you also set a name to your container, you will be able to use it as hostname in your network.
## Configuration
### Configuration file
The image looks for configurations in `/opt/bitnami/redis/mounted-etc/redis.conf`. You can overwrite the `redis.conf` file using your own custom configuration file.
```console
docker run --name redis \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
-v /path/to/your_redis.conf:/opt/bitnami/redis/mounted-etc/redis.conf \
-v /path/to/redis-data-persistence:/bitnami/redis/data \
bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
Alternatively, modify the [`docker-compose.yml`](https://github.com/bitnami/containers/blob/main/bitnami/redis/docker-compose.yml) file present in this repository:
```yaml
services:
redis-node-0:
...
volumes:
- /path/to/your_redis.conf:/opt/bitnami/redis/mounted-etc/redis.conf
- /path/to/redis-persistence:/bitnami/redis/data
...
```
Refer to the [Redis(R) configuration](https://redis.io/topics/config) manual for the complete list of configuration options.
### Overriding configuration
Instead of providing a custom `redis.conf`, you may also choose to provide only settings you wish to override. The image will look for `/opt/bitnami/redis/mounted-etc/overrides.conf`. This will be ignored if custom `redis.conf` is provided.
```console
docker run --name redis \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
-v /path/to/overrides.conf:/opt/bitnami/redis/mounted-etc/overrides.conf \
bitnami/redis:latest
```
Alternatively, modify the [`docker-compose.yml`](https://github.com/bitnami/containers/blob/main/bitnami/redis/docker-compose.yml) file present in this repository:
```yaml
services:
redis:
...
volumes:
- /path/to/overrides.conf:/opt/bitnami/redis/mounted-etc/overrides.conf
...
```

Once all the Redis(R) nodes are running you need to execute command like the following to initiate the cluster:
```console
redis-cli --cluster create node1:port node2:port --cluster-replicas 1 --cluster-yes
```
Where you can add all the `node:port` that you want. The `--cluster-replicas` parameters indicates how many replicas you want to have for every master.
### Cluster Initialization Troubleshooting
Depending on the environment you're deploying into, you might run into issues where the cluster initialization is not completing successfully. One of the issue is related to the DNS lookup of the redis nodes performed during cluster initialization. By default, this DNS lookup is performed as soon as all the redis nodes reply to a successful ping.
However, in some environments such as Kubernetes, it can help to wait some time before performing this DNS lookup in order to prevent getting stale records. To this end, you can increase `REDIS_CLUSTER_SLEEP_BEFORE_DNS_LOOKUP` to a value around `30` which has been found to be good in most cases.
### Securing Redis(R) Cluster traffic
Starting with version 6, Redis(R) adds the support for SSL/TLS connections. Should you desire to enable this optional feature, you may use the aforementioned `REDIS_TLS_*` environment variables to configure the application.
When enabling TLS, conventional standard traffic is disabled by default. However this new feature is not mutually exclusive, which means it is possible to listen to both TLS and non-TLS connection simultaneously. To enable non-TLS traffic, set `REDIS_TLS_PORT_NUMBER` to another port different than `0`.
1. Using `docker run`
```console
$ docker run --name redis-cluster \
-v /path/to/certs:/opt/bitnami/redis/certs \
-v /path/to/redis-cluster-persistence:/bitnami \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
-e REDIS_TLS_ENABLED=yes \
-e REDIS_TLS_CERT_FILE=/opt/bitnami/redis/certs/redis.crt \
-e REDIS_TLS_KEY_FILE=/opt/bitnami/redis/certs/redis.key \
-e REDIS_TLS_CA_FILE=/opt/bitnami/redis/certs/redisCA.crt \
bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
2. Modifying the `docker-compose.yml` file present in this repository:
```yaml
redis-cluster:
...
environment:
...
- REDIS_TLS_ENABLED=yes
- REDIS_TLS_CERT_FILE=/opt/bitnami/redis/certs/redis.crt
- REDIS_TLS_KEY_FILE=/opt/bitnami/redis/certs/redis.key
- REDIS_TLS_CA_FILE=/opt/bitnami/redis/certs/redisCA.crt
...
volumes:
- /path/to/certs:/opt/bitnami/redis/certs
...
...
```
Alternatively, you may also provide with this configuration in your [custom](https://github.com/bitnami/containers/blob/main/bitnami/redis-cluster#configuration-file) configuration file.
### Enable Redis(R) Cluster RDB persistence
When the value of `REDIS_RDB_POLICY_DISABLED` is `no` (default value) the Redis(R) default persistence strategy will be used. If you want to modify the default strategy, you can configure it through the `REDIS_RDB_POLICY` parameter. Here is a demonstration of modifying the default persistence strategy
1. Using `docker run`
```console
$ docker run --name redis-cluster \
-v /path/to/redis-cluster-persistence:/bitnami \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
-e REDIS_RDB_POLICY_DISABLED=no
-e REDIS_RDB_POLICY="900#1 600#5 300#10 120#50 60#1000 30#10000"
bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
2. Modifying the `docker-compose.yml` file present in this repository:
```yaml
redis-cluster:
...
environment:
...
- REDIS_TLS_ENABLED=yes
- REDIS_RDB_POLICY_DISABLED=no
- REDIS_RDB_POLICY="900#1 600#5 300#10 120#50 60#1000 30#10000"
...
...
```
### FIPS configuration in Bitnami Secure Images
The Bitnami Redis&reg; Cluster Docker image from the [Bitnami Secure Images](https://go-vmware.broadcom.com/contact-us) catalog includes extra features and settings to configure the container with FIPS capabilities. You can configure the next environment variables:
- `OPENSSL_FIPS`: whether OpenSSL runs in FIPS mode or not. `yes` (default), `no`.
## Logging
The Bitnami Redis(R) Cluster Docker image sends the container logs to `stdout`. To view the logs:
```console
docker logs redis-cluster
```
You can configure the containers [logging driver](https://docs.docker.com/engine/admin/logging/overview/) using the `--log-driver` option if you wish to consume the container logs differently. In the default configuration docker uses the `json-file` driver.
## Maintenance
### Upgrade this image
Bitnami provides up-to-date versions of Redis(R) Cluster, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container.
#### Step 1: Get the updated image
```console
docker pull bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
#### Step 2: Stop the running container
Stop the currently running container using the command
```console
docker stop redis-cluster
```
#### Step 3: Remove the currently running container
```console
docker rm -v redis-cluster
```
#### Step 4: Run the new image
Re-create your container from the new image.
```console
docker run --name redis-cluster bitnami/redis-cluster:latest
```
## Upgrading
### To 5.0.12-debian-10-r48 release, 6.2.1-debian-10-r48 release , 6.0.12-debian-10-r48
The cluster initialization logic has changed. Now the container in charge of initialize the cluster will also be part of the cluster. It will initialize Redis in background, create the cluster and then bring back to foreground the Redis process.
