Redis backs the DRF throttles, and the stock RedisCache raises inside the throttle check when Redis is unreachable or refusing writes (a failed RDB snapshot disables writes by default) — turning a cache problem into a blanket 500, which is exactly what took prod down. ResilientRedisCache treats backend failures as cache misses, logs the first one per worker, and lets rate limits degrade until Redis is back.

"""Redis cache that degrades instead of taking the whole API down.
|
|
|
|
Redis backs the DRF throttles and a few caches (storage stats, guest
|
|
blacklist, tag clouds). With Django's stock ``RedisCache``, a Redis that is
|
|
unreachable — or merely refusing writes because its RDB snapshot failed, the
|
|
default ``stop-writes-on-bgsave-error`` behaviour — raises inside the
|
|
throttle check on every request, so a cache outage becomes a blanket 500.
|
|
|
|
This backend treats cache failures as misses: rate limits and cached values
|
|
simply stop working until Redis is back, and the first failure per worker is
|
|
logged once so the cause is still visible.
