DefaultPort

Security
Description
You have 2 instances/clusters are using default port, which enable attackers to scan & penetrate to the service easier. Default Port for Redis is 6379, Memcached is 11211.

LatestInstance

Performance Efficiency
Description
You have 2 instances still using older instance types. If there are no Reserved Instances tied to older generation of instance class, then you should consider upgrading your instance type to use latest instance class families - r5, m5, t3, m6g, and r6g. Latest instance classes (for the same size of instance) often offer better performance either at same or lesser cost. Changing the instance class will cause some downtime.

RInstanceType

Performance Efficiency
Description
You have 2 instances not running on R instance (Memory-Optimised). It is recommended to use R instance for better performance over cost efficiency. (Only flagged this when you are running instance with more than 8GB ram)
