When using taskiq-redis with Redis Sentinel in an async environment (EKS), I’m getting this abruptly 5-6 times (maybe more) in a day. But it restarts automatically and then works fine.

025-07-24T21:54:19.276+06:00    raw = await self._readline()
2025-07-24T21:54:19.276+06:00          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2025-07-24T21:54:19.276+06:00  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/redis/_parsers/base.py", line 221, in _readline
2025-07-24T21:54:19.276+06:00    raise ConnectionError(SERVER_CLOSED_CONNECTION_ERROR)
2025-07-24T21:54:19.276+06:00redis.exceptions.ConnectionError: Connection closed by server.

Here's my implementation:

import logging
import os

from taskiq import InMemoryBroker
from taskiq.serializers import ORJSONSerializer
from taskiq_redis import (
    ListQueueBroker,
    ListQueueSentinelBroker,
    RedisAsyncResultBackend,
    RedisAsyncSentinelResultBackend,
)

import rbac.services.taskiq_fastapi as taskiq_fastapi

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO, format="%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s")
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)

REDIS_URI = os.getenv("SVC_REDIS")
IS_LOCAL = False  # Set to True for local development without Redis

if IS_LOCAL:
    logger.info("Using InMemoryBroker (local mode enabled)")
    broker = InMemoryBroker()
else:
    logger.info("Configuring Redis-based broker")
    is_redis_sentinel = os.environ.get("REDIS_SENTINEL_MODE", "false")
    redis_sentinel_host = os.environ.get("REDIS_SENTINEL_HOST", "")
    redis_sentinel_master_name = os.environ.get("REDIS_SENTINEL_MASTER_NAME", "")
    client_name = "access-control-service"
    queue_name = "access-control-queue"

    if is_redis_sentinel == "true":
        logger.info(
            f"Setting up Redis Sentinel: host={redis_sentinel_host}, master={redis_sentinel_master_name}"
        )
        redis_async_result = RedisAsyncSentinelResultBackend(
            sentinels=[(redis_sentinel_host, 26379)],
            master_name=redis_sentinel_master_name,
            serializer=ORJSONSerializer(),
            client_name=client_name,
        )

        broker = ListQueueSentinelBroker(
            sentinels=[(redis_sentinel_host, 26379)],
            master_name=redis_sentinel_master_name,
            client_name=client_name,
            queue_name=queue_name,
        ).with_result_backend(redis_async_result)

        logger.info("Redis Sentinel broker successfully initialized")
    else:
        logger.info(f"Connecting to standalone Redis at: {REDIS_URI}")
        redis_async_result = RedisAsyncResultBackend(
            redis_url=REDIS_URI,
            client_name=client_name,
        )

        broker = ListQueueBroker(
            url=REDIS_URI,
            queue_name=queue_name,
            client_name=client_name,
        ).with_result_backend(redis_async_result)

        logger.info("Standalone Redis broker successfully initialized")

logger.info("Initializing Taskiq FastAPI integration with 'main:app'")
taskiq_fastapi.init(broker, "main:app")
logger.info("Taskiq FastAPI integration completed")

from .tasks import *  # noqa

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
