Any commands for stopping Elasticache? #1

I use AWS Elasticache for Redis and also can shut that down or stop it to save some costs, really thanks for this project, looking for something like it for a while now!

Thanks for the suggestion I'll definitely add ElastiCache to the tricks. Currently I only added a few basic tricks to see if this project is a idea to work on :)

Let me know if there are anything else in your Cost Explorer taking away your hard-earned bucks!

@mding5692 just released v0.0.7 with snapshot-remove-elasticache-redis trick. Give it a try on your development env and let me know if it has any issues :)

Since it's an experimental trick, you can try it by:

aws-cost-saver conserve --dry-run --use-trick snapshot-remove-elasticache-redis

and if it correctly detected your ElastiCache cluster (you can look in the resulting aws-cost-saver.json file), then remove the dry run:

aws-cost-saver conserve --no-default-tricks --use-trick snapshot-remove-elasticache-redis
