Has anyone ever setup REDIS and the Exchange Listener in Azure Kubernetes Service?

Hello!

Yes, Redis and the Exchange Listener (Email Listener) are fully compatible with Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).

It’s important to ensure that:

• Redis is properly configured — either as a containerized service in your cluster or using Azure Cache for Redis.
• The Email Listener components (API and Worker) can access Redis — this may require configuring access rules, open ports, and setting the abortConnect=false parameter in the connection string to avoid failures on startup.
• All pods use the same Redis host to keep subscriptions synchronized.

Once set up correctly, the listener works stably in AKS and supports scaling.
