Redis Cluster is a builtin Redis feature that supports automatic sharding, replication and high availability which was previously implemented using Sentinels. It is designed for two major purposes: one is to automatically split your dataset among multiple instances and secondly to provide some degree of availability during partitions, to continue operations when some instances (especially masters) fail or are not able to communicate with the majority of nodes in the cluster.
