Just so we're clear: our take right now is that if you want Redis, you should run Redis as an app. The Redis we provide "built in" to the platform is an artifact of an earlier iteration of Fly.io.

Yes - which unfortunately results in a single-instance, single-region Redis instance, as far as I understood.
Not sure I follow, sorry. If you want multi-region Redis, you can deploy multi-region Redis.
Now I am not quite sure if I follow haha. Sorry.

The documentation states,

> "to get a Redis instance with persistent storage running in a single region."

Would I be correct to assume that I would have to take care of configuring the clustering?

I'm obviously aware I could deploy multiple Redis instances in different regions, but then I would end up with different Redis instances, no?
