Description

I see that lua-resty-openidc does the heavy-lifting. I would like to monitor/manage the session cache, and also use another server-side storage mechanisms other than shared-memory(default), e.g. memcache or redis. I'm worried about the shared-memory performance for large number of user sessions(1M+) even after proper scaling.

• How can I configure APISIX to use redis as the session storage ?
• Do I need to scale APISIX gateway to manage large number of sessions ?
• What would you suggest about managing APISIX session storage in multi-cluster environment?
• Overall, what would you suggest about session storage for the production as best practice ?

Any opinion would be appreciated 🙏
