Create POC for switching common lib to use reactive instead of blocking
Currently, we use blocking/synchronous calls when executing code in our stacks. There have been large changes in Quarkus where reactive technologies have been upgraded and promoted over traditional blocking calls. We should start the process of migrating our calls to use non blocking calls to improve performance and use the recommended stacks over the legacy standard.
The main targets of these changes should be anything with caching, REST client calls, or persistence queries. Those changes should represent the large majority of code where we are currently blocking when we could be using reactive calls.
