Description

Currently, caching is done by a Guava in-memory cache that lives within the JVM. As the end goal of this microservice is to be cloud-native using k8s, a distributed caching service like Redis may be more appropriate than Guava for the use case.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the current Guava cache usage in the codebase, explore Quarkus Redis extension for distributed caching, and design a migration plan to replace Guava with Redis.
