Vapor: Serverless ElastiCache Support

Recently, AWS announced a new addition to the ElastiCache service, serverless ElastiCache. Serverless ElastiCache radically simplifies the management of your cache, negating the need to provision a fixed-size cache or predetermined number of cache nodes. Instead, Redis-backed serverless Caches can be provisioned in under a minute and instantly scale to support the needs of even the most demanding applications. Serverless ElastiCache automatically stores data across availability zones and offers 99.99% availability. It also provides encryption in transit and at rest by default. Today, we're excited to announce Vapor now provides the ability to provision and manage serverless ElastiCache directly from the Vapor dashboard or CLI. To get started, simply create a new cache from your [Vapor dashboard](https://vapor.laravel.com/app/caches) and select the new **"Redis 7.x Serverless"** cache type. As always with Vapor, we strive to ensure that provisioning infrastructure and attaching it to your projects is as simple as possible. Once your new serverless Cache is provisioned, [add it to your `vapor.yml` configuration file](https://docs.vapor.build/resources/caches.html#using-caches) and deploy using the Vapor CLI. Vapor will automatically configure the Redis connection and inject all relevant environment variables: ```yaml id: 3 name: vapor-app environments: production: cache: my-serverless-cache build: - 'composer install --no-dev' deploy: - 'php artisan migrate --force' ``` To learn more about using caches with your Vapor application, check out our complete [Vapor cache documentation](https://docs.vapor.build/resources/caches.html). At Vapor, we go the extra mile to ensure your serverless infrastructure is as easy to manage and maintain as possible. We hope you like this exciting new addition, which is available today.

Vapor: Sub-Minute Scheduled Tasks

To invoke Laravel's internal scheduler, you must call the schedule:run Artisan command once every minute. In a traditional serverful hosting environment, you may achieve this using a utility such as cron.

Vapor: RDS Certificate Authority Expiry

AWS has been providing certificates from the rds-ca-2019 Certificate Authority, but these certificates are due to expire in August 2024. If you are running an RDS instance using this Certificate Authority, it must be updated to prevent any interruption in connectivity after this date.
