Why there is no Enterprise option in capacity and family when using API to spin redis cluster

Question

I am trying to write some automation for deploying "Azure cache for Redis" using HTTP Api call.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/redis/redis/create?view=rest-redis-2023-08-01&tabs=HTTP#sku  - only see options for Basic, standard and Premium. I don't see Enterprise.

I am looking to deploy Enterprise with cache size E50

Hi Desmond Sindatry •,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

As I understand, you want to know about Enterprise Sku creation option in Azure Cache for Redis using REST.

As per the documentation, currently we have only Basic, Standard and Premium available https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/redis/redis/create?view=rest-redis-2023-08-01&tabs=HTTP#sku through Rest.

I am checking internally about the Enterprise sku availability and will get back to you.

Thanks

Hi Desmond Sindatry •,

I have checked with the internal team.

This exists, it’s just a different API between Basic/Standard/Premium and Enterprise.  Look at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/redis/redisenterprisecache/databases/create?view=rest-redis-redisenterprisecache-2024-02-01&tabs=HTTP

Let us know if you have tried the same request format.

Try to use sku name without underscore, if that works.

Thanks
