  • Issue 1 (Azure Redis Cache): Yes, ABP supports passing the full Azure Redis connection string via Redis:Configuration.
    In ABP’s Azure deployment guidance for the layered (tiered) template, Redis is configured like this (note it’s the same “full string” format Azure provides, including password=..., ssl=true, etc.):

    appsettings.json (each app/service you deploy that uses distributed cache / data-protection):

  {
      "Redis": {
        "Configuration": "your-cache-name.redis.cache.windows.net:6380,password=YOUR_KEY,ssl=true,abortConnect=False"
      }
    }
  

  So you should use Redis:Configuration (not Redis:Host) and put the full Azure connection string value there.

  Important practical notes for Azure Cache for Redis:

  • Use port 6380 + ssl=true (Azure Redis typically requires TLS).

  • The “firewall allow all IPs” setting is not always the only gate; if you use Private Endpoint / VNET, the public endpoint won’t be reachable from App Service unless networking is configured accordingly. (This is Azure-side, not ABP-side.)

  • Issue 2 (Disable RabbitMQ / use in-memory bus): No verified source available in the provided context/tools for an ABP 9.2.1 “official/best-practice switch” to turn off RabbitMQ via only appsettings.json.
    What can be stated definitively:

    • If your solution references/configures the RabbitMQ distributed event bus, the processes that include that module/config will attempt to connect.
    • In a tiered setup, it can be expected that multiple apps (including the UI host like Blazor Server) may try to connect if they also include the RabbitMQ event bus module/configuration, because distributed events can be published/consumed from different tiers.

    Since I couldn’t verify the exact supported “disable RabbitMQ / fall back to in-memory” switch for ABP 9.2.1 from the available sources, I will not provide an unverified config/code change here.

  hi

  Does the ABP Framework support passing the full Azure connection string directly into the standard Redis configuration field? Is there a specific format or property I should be using in the appsettings.json?

  Yes. Abp will call the AddStackExchangeRedisCache to set up Redis

  context.Services.AddStackExchangeRedisCache(options =>
  {
      var redisConfiguration = configuration["Redis:Configuration"];
      options.Configuration = redisConfiguration;
  });
  

  See https://stackexchange.github.io/StackExchange.Redis/Configuration.html

  hi

  Issue 2: Disabling RabbitMQ for Single-Instance Deployment

  Your application is tiered, so you need a distributed event bus. However, if you need to disable it, you can replace AbpEventBusRabbitMqModule with AbpEventBusModule in your module dependencies.

  Thanks.
