Investigate using Google Cloud Redis storage rather than redis labs #58

I'm often running into issues with connecting to Redis Labs from my computer. I thought that this was just my program, but I found that RedisInsights also has a dodgy connection to it as well. As a result, I often have to restart my server a few times before it properly connects. I want to look into setting up Redis on Google Cloud and accessing it from there instead.

Google cloud actually offers two different options for this. You can create a redis instance or use Redis Labs Enterprise.

I don't know about the pricing differences between the two other than the Redis instance was saying that 16gb would cost $260/mo??

Would be good to do more research on this. There was also a memcache option that I'd like to explore.
