Why you don't just run new instance with your own Valkey?

Because when you’re in production with many users, it’s not worth the risk when you’ve already been burned, especially when the downside is a small discount.
The aws managed cache offerings are not just a small premium, they're like 10x more expensive than the ec2 instance types they represent.
Its more but I doubt its 10x or even close to that.
It's not even 2x. I spot checked 2 instance types and they were 36% and 69% more.
