Description
While running test cases (see #10), I've noticed that the API endpoint, /api/images, tends to throw 500-related errors (see below). There are multiple causes for this, where one is the logic for fetching images. The other is making too many calls to Google's API.
Solution
I propose we use Redis to alleviate our API and Google's API. This would not only speed up our application but prevent repeated calls to Google's API and thus save on potential costs.
