Redis Management — .NET SDK Quick Reference

Condensed from azure-resource-manager-redis-dotnet. Full patterns (cache creation, firewall rules, access keys, geo-replication, patching) in the azure-resource-manager-redis-dotnet plugin skill if installed.

Install

dotnet add package Azure.ResourceManager.Redis dotnet add package Azure.Identity

Quick Start

Auth: DefaultAzureCredential is for local development. See auth-best-practices.md for production patterns.

using Azure.ResourceManager;
using Azure.Identity;
var armClient = new ArmClient(new DefaultAzureCredential());

Best Practices

• Use WaitUntil.Completed for operations that must finish before proceeding
• Use WaitUntil.Started when you want to poll manually or run operations in parallel
• Use DefaultAzureCredential for local development only. In production, use ManagedIdentityCredential — see auth-best-practices.md
• Handle RequestFailedException for ARM API errors
• Use CreateOrUpdateAsync for idempotent operations
• Navigate hierarchy via Get* methods (e.g., cache.GetRedisFirewallRules())
• Use Premium SKU for production workloads requiring geo-replication, clustering, or persistence
• Enable TLS 1.2 minimum — set MinimumTlsVersion = RedisTlsVersion.Tls1_2
• Disable non-SSL port — set EnableNonSslPort = false for security
• Rotate keys regularly — use RegenerateKeyAsync and update connection strings
