[keycloak-dev] caching

[Stian Thorgersen]

Initially I think using Infinispan as a 2nd level cache for JPA would be the way to go. It provides all of this stuff with the minimum fuzz. Later if we can't tune it enough, we could use Infinispan directly.

For really huge deployments I we'd probably need support for sharding as well.
