Connecting To Stock Marketplace Redis server via lightspeed plugin
I am running my site on a a2hosting server. However, I want to use redis on linode and connect to it via the lightspeed plugin.
I have deployed a redis server via the marketplace however I cannot seem to connect to it via the lightspeed plugin.
Is there any steps I am missing? Do I need to use a specific port number and open something up in the linode firewall?

It's difficult to say what steps you might be missing, but I think our guide to Connecting to a Remote Redis server might be the best place to start. That includes some steps that are not included in the guide you mentioned, including how to open the correct port in your firewall and how to bind Redis to an address.
You may also want to check to see if A2hosting has a similar guide since that's where you'd be connecting to the remote database from.
There are a few different sources that talk about How to set up Redis with LiteSpeed Cache, though that may not be exactly what you're trying to do. If you can provide more information about what you've tried and any errors you're seeing after using the resources here, someone may be able to provide a little more information to help you figure out where to go next.
