Description

Feature Description

generic_links table is being used for storing payout link resources at the moment. Redis is used as in-memory cache for faster r/w operations in a local store (database). This is implemented for a couple of tables at the moment. The feature requirement here is to extend KV support to the generic_links table.

Possible Implementation

There already exists an application interface for performing KV operations on Redis - KVRouterStore. The same needs to be implemented for generic_links table

Research direction
Examine existing KV implementations for other tables in the codebase to understand the pattern. Look for the KVRouterStore interface and how it is used. Identify the generic links table definition and its schema. Then implement a similar KV layer for generic links, likely in the same module.
