[Feat]: redis backend for dedup cache #2004

Open elee1766 opened 10 months ago

elee1766 commented 10 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

i would like to use something that is not dynamodb as a distributed dedup cache.

Describe the solution you'd like

redis seems like a good candidate for this. there was already a dependency for redis in the package, so i felt it was a good choice.

Describe alternatives you've considered

@elee1766 is this for a cloud deployment use case?

elee1766 commented 10 months ago

yep!

I plan to combine this with the s3 storage

I am also currently working on the ability to use s3 storage with the sync backend.

my use case is to use zot as a proxy to balance between two identical container registries. I would like the cached images to stay existent between runs without configuring persistent storage. currently there's like a long delay on first pull which I would like to avoid.

ideally I am trying to host a distributed zot cluster using a PAAS platform, like heroku, fly, digitalocean app engine, etc. they all support redis but not dynamo since that's aws only

Perhaps this should be changed to Valkey or similar, since Redis isn't considered open-source anymore
