Redis persistence (or possibly lack-thereof) is probably quite complicated for a junior developer to understand. I'd actually expect a better outcome with PSQL.

I disagree. But anytime I've been exposed to redis, it's always been as an ephemeral data store.

Not sure what you are getting at here.

Redis is one of the simplest data stores around to use and its persistence is solid.

I've lost countless amount of data in production systems running Redis. Haven't ever lost anything in Postgres. (I still run both.)
