This page only tracks the Elasticache Redis OSS offering, and not the Valkey variant. The highest upgrade possible for Redis OSS is 7.1. 7.2 and higher versions are Valkey only. An upgrade from Redis OSS to Valkey 7.2 is supported. A downgrade from Valkey 7.2 to Redis OSS 7.1 is also supported.

Amazon ElastiCache for Redis OSS does not follow the same support lifecycle as open-source Redis. ElastiCache v7.1 is compatible with Redis OSS v7.0.

After the end of standard support date, ElastiCache automatically enrolls clusters in Extended Support — a paid offering providing critical security fixes for up to 3 years.

More information is available on the Amazon ElastiCache for Redis OSS website.
