Current behavior

Node cache manager provides the ability to pass redisInstance , this can be utilized to use a existing redis connection for cache
https://github.com/dabroek/node-cache-manager-ioredis?tab=readme-ov-file#use-an-external-redis-instance

CacheModule.registerAsync({
imports: [RedisModule],
inject: [RedisService],
useFactory: (redisService: RedisService) => ({
redisInstance: redisService.getClient(),
store: redisStore,
}),
}),

a new connection is opened on using the above code
