Golang XRAY SDK with redis

Greetings,

Kindly note that currently there is no official documentation for the implementation of the golang xray sdk in LAMBDA to capture calls going to redis. But I did find the relevant documentation for your use case where when your application makes calls to AWS services to store data, write to a queue, or send notifications, the X-Ray SDK for Go tracks the calls downstream in subsegments, but this reference is for Dynamodb ; and the other one is for the Serverless tracking.

Going ahead, I was also able to find on the aws/aws-xray-sdk-node github link that 'the SDK uses CLS to bind context. Since the SDK doesn't officially support any Redis client, they may or may not work with CLS.' Please refer to the below mentioned links for more information on the same.

Having said that, if need further deep diving or any possible solutions/workarounds for your concern, please reach out to the ElastiCache for Redis team through the AWS support and we will be glad to assist you.
