How to set up Redis

To configure it easily, we are providing a pre-configured template.
By default it will create a server with the following properties:
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Tier | Standard |
| Family | C |
| Cache size | 1GB |
| Non SSL port | Enabled |
| Max clients count | 1000 |
Edit the template if you need specific setings.
