Is secure storage for Redis necessary?

I covered it here: More details on how the Redis cache is utilized? - #2 by Falco

Redis is used for:

  • cache

  • background job queue

  • persistent connections backlog and pub/sub

I’d go with a hosted service in GCP if I were in your shoes, provided they ship a recent enough version of Redis and don’t lag much behind. AWS does great in keeping up with new versions, while GCP / Azure can lag sometimes.
