evaluate Redis Enterprise Cloud

I enable the Redis Enterprise on GCP. I play around it for a while. Its key benefit is clustering, replication, security, and self-service. And, it includes all four modules. They are nicet-to-have features. We can certainly live without it; and therefore, I suggest to take it away, if too expensive.

Also, even using public cloud, it is more expensive, than the website claims. In addition to paying RedisLab, need to pay the underlaying compute resource. A very min subscription will take a few hundreds dollar. I delete the subscription after playing 15 minutes. I will fall back to using OSS RediSearch docker image.

Also, Redis store provided by Google is only 1/10 price of Redis Enterprise provided by RedisLab. Therefore, the ongoing design will be based OSS RediSearch only.
