Create or edit a threshold profile for Amazon ElastiCache

Site24x7 supports individual threshold profiles for three major components in your ElastiCache environment — Memcached cluster, Memcached node and Redis node. When a new ElastiCache node/cluster (Memcached or Redis engine) gets discovered and added as monitor, a default threshold profile gets attached to it. You can either edit the default profile or create yourself a new one.
