Redis Cloud config truth lives in the management REST API, not Redis commands
When you need to know the truth about a Redis Cloud database, its TLS flag, eviction policy, shard count, or module list, call the Cloud Management REST API, not the database itself. INFO and CONFIG GET will not give you these. Build your automation against GET /subscriptions/{id}/databases/{id} for inventory and drift checks, and reserve the RESP connection for data-plane work only.
Context: Web source (Redis Cloud compatibility notes): documents the discovery gotcha agents hit. Many database configuration and operational details are NOT available via Redis commands and can only be retrieved through the Redis Cloud Management REST API, e.g. GET /subscriptions/{id}/databases/{id}, which returns the public endpoint, TLS settings, eviction policy, clustering and sharding config, replication, modules, and security settings.Maintainer review
