Description

Hi! I'd like to implement cache system using the requests library for a microservice architecture. We already have a Redis backend built into our architecture and I would like to know if the Redis backend is production-ready.

Also, does this work with the requests async (from requests import async) feature? I don't see why it wouldn't, but considering the relative level of caution advised in the redis docs, I wanted to get clarification. I'd be happy to contribute to testing and improving the project if it's mostly production ready.

Start by reviewing the existing Redis backend and the requests async integration mentioned in the issue. Establish whether production readiness and async compatibility can be verified with tests; done should be a clearly documented support status or a scoped set of improvements.
