Prevent Server Failures if Redis Connection Fails

[daryldeogracias]

How can we configure @envelop/response-cache-redis so that if Redis is unavailable the GraphQL server never crashes or hangs (e.g., automatically falls back to in-memory/no-op caching) and continues running normally?

This is not something that exists yet. But you can create your own cache implementation (the interface is small and straightforward). This way you would have full control of how you want to handle redis failure. You could make an implementation that forwards calls to Redis cache implementation, and falls back to in-memory cache as you which.

If you want to, you can even start a PR :-) If you need help we are here to guide you!
