About the API Service

This is a simple API project to demonstrate how you can implement a distributed Redis cache hosted at Azure into your .NET Core Web API. You will be able to replicate the logic using either .NET 6 or .NET 7.

Why should you use a cache like Redis?

• Response time is reduced drastically
• Your database will be able to breath and serve requests other than just GET operations
• Your clients will be happy 😄
