Description (problem / solution / changelog)

Description

Add Redis Semantic Cache to improve RAG applications. RedisVL provides a SemanticCache interface to utilize Redis' built-in caching capabilities AND vector search in order to store responses from previously-answered questions. This reduces the number of requests and tokens sent to the Large Language Models (LLM) service, decreasing costs and enhancing application throughput (by reducing the time taken to generate responses).
