  # Cache is an implementation on top of Gitlab::Redis::SharedState that also
  # adheres to the ActiveSupport::Cache::Store interface and uses the redis
  # hash data type.
  #
  # Since Gitlab::Experiment can use any type of caching layer, utilizing the
  # long lived shared state interface here gives us an efficient way to store
  # context keys and the variant they've been assigned -- while also giving us
  # a simple way to clean up an experiments data upon resolution.
  #
  # The data structure:
  #   key: experiment.name
  #   fields: context key => variant name
  #
  # The keys are expected to be `experiment_name:context_key`, which is the
  # default cache key strategy. So running `cache.fetch("foo:bar", "value")`
  # would create/update a hash with the key of "foo", with a field named
  # "bar" that has "value" assigned to it.
