Migrate Redis data on Amazon ElastiCache

"""
Forked and heavily adappted from:
https://gist.github.com/kitwalker12/517d99c3835975ad4d1718d28a63553e

Copies all keys from the source Redis host to the destination Redis host.
Useful to migrate Redis instances where commands like SLAVEOF and MIGRATE are
restricted (e.g. on Amazon ElastiCache).

The script scans through the keyspace of the given database number and uses
a pipeline of DUMP and RESTORE commands to migrate the keys.

Requires Redis 2.8.0 or higher.

Python requirements:
click
progressbar
redis

This works great. I didn't see it delete anything in source in my tests.

I added a remove option here: https://gist.github.com/mohammadjolani/7d71b73afda27980e985e53d02feb9aa

Here is Java implementation https://github.com/BalaclavaLab/blc-redis-dump-restore

It does not use keys() function so Redis won't get blocked.
