An Operational Framework For Memorystore Redis Clusters

This is a framework that provides the tools to apply cluster level operations that enable capabilities like cluster backups, migration & validation, etc. The framework can be extended for other use cases as required. The framework uses RIOT to bridge current product gaps with Memorystore Clusters

Prerequisites

  1. A Google Compute Engine (GCE) instance where you must have RIOT installed since the script runs a subprocess to execute the riot command.
sudo apt install openjdk-17-jdk
sudo apt install openjdk-17-jre
wget https://github.com/redis-developer/riot/releases/download/v3.1.5/riot-3.1.5.zip

Move the zip to the location where you want the binaries to reside

sudo mv riot-3.1.5.zip /var/opt/riot/
cd /var/opt/riot/

Unzip the file

sudo apt install unzip
sudo unzip riot-3.1.5.zip

  1. Update the config.json with the bin path

  2. The GCE instance's service account must have the required permissions to write logs into Cloud Logging and create files in GCS buckets.

migrate-validate-mrc.py

The script supports the following replication types:

  • validate: This type of replication will only validate the data between the two clusters. It will not replicate any data from the source cluster to the target cluster.
  • replace: This type of replication will delete all of the data from the target cluster and then replicate all of the data from the source cluster to the target cluster.
  • incremental: This type of replication will only replicate the data from the source cluster to the target cluster that has not already been replicated.

The script also supports an optional sampling factor that takes the value between 0 and 1. The sampling factor determines the percentage of keys that will be validated. For example, if the sampling factor is set to 0.1, only 10% of the keys in the source and target clusters will be validated. The default is 0.3

To use the script, first run the following command to parse the command-line arguments:

python3 migrate-validate-mrc.py --sourcehost <hostname> --sourceport <port> --tgthost <hostname> --tgtport <port> [--sampling_factor 0.3 --replication_mode validate]

Where:

  • sourcehost is the hostname of the source Redis instance.
  • sourceport is the port number of the source Redis instance.
  • tgthost is the hostname of the target Redis instance.
  • tgtport is the port number of the target Redis instance.
  • sampling_factor is the sampling factor. The default is 0.3.
  • replication_mode is the replication type, Acceptable values are incremental/replace/validate

backup-mrc.py

This script uses the Redis CLI to export data from a Redis instance to a Google Cloud Storage (GCS) bucket or a local path.

To use the script, run the following command:

python backup-mrc.py -i HOST -p PORT -c CLUSTER -b BUCKET

Where:

  • HOST is the Redis host.
  • PORT is the Redis port.
  • CLUSTER is the Redis cluster name.
  • BUCKET is the GCS bucket name. Use the gs:// prefix to specify the bucket. If the gs:// prefix is not specified, the script will create the path in the local filesystem.

restore-mrc.py

This script can be used to restore a Redis cluster from a JSON backup file.

To use the script, run the following command:

python restore-mrc.py -i HOSTIP -p PORT -b BUCKET -m MODE

where:

  • HOSTIP is the IP address of the Redis host.
  • PORT is the port number of the Redis host.
  • BUCKET is the name of the GCS bucket that contains the backup file.
  • MODE is the mode of the restore operation. The mode can be either append or replace.
