Hello,
Thank you for your query!

RediSearch [1] is a source-available Redis module that enables querying, secondary indexing, and full-text search for Redis. Redis Stack unifies and simplifies the capabilities provided by Redis as it bundles RediSearch along with other capabilities into Redis.

However, please note that ElastiCache [2] and MemoryDB [3] are fully managed AWS services and hence doesn't allow you to install external, custom, or Redis modules. Therefore, unfortunately, you will not be able to use 'RediSearch' or any custom/redis module on Elasticache Redis.

However, as an alternative, you may consider installing and managing your own Redis server on an EC2 instance. That way you can install and load custom modules like RedisSearch and make any additional configuration changes as per your requirement. But please do note that this would be considered as a third party application as it is self managed redis server and hence is outside the scope of AWS Support.

Let me know if you have any further queries. Thank you for your interest in re:Post community.
Have a great day!
