This is why I ran Redis on a single server with no failover strategy. Our team spent maybe 15 hours workshopping a handful of other things (redis cluster, sentinels + replicas) before realizing we could spend an hour to have everything sit in a degraded state working around it while Redis itself was fixed. Redis only failed once ever and it took all of an hour to fix it, all during non-peak hours.
