Python can be fast if you don't intentionally cripple it. Doing the following will be most likely a lot faster than postgresml:

- replace json (storing data as strings? really?) with a binary format like protobuf, or better yet parquet

- replace redis with duckdb for zero-copy reads

- replace pandas with polars for faster transformations

- use asynchronous, modern web framework for microservices like fastAPI

- Tune xgboost CPU resource usage with semaphores

A good start would be to not do silly things like

    body = request.json
    key = json.dumps(body)
