How to Migrate a Cloud Application That Depends on a Managed Cache

An application may rely on a managed cache for sessions, rate limits, or frequently read data. Moving compute without planning cache topology, key behavior, and failover can cause widespread sign-outs or load spikes on the database.

What to check

Identify cache purpose, eviction and TTL rules, connection settings, persistence needs, network access, and failure behavior. Test cold-cache startup and confirm that cache keys remain compatible across application versions.

Recommended next step

Provision and warm the target cache where appropriate, then migrate traffic in a controlled way. Ensure the application degrades safely if cache access is interrupted and monitor database load during cutover.
