Are you saying that compressed data should not be encrypted? We are trying to limit the amount of data we have to store in the backend K/V store. Can you provide links so I can read up on this. Thanks.

That's really tricky to answer simply. "No" might be taken to mean you should store compressed data unencrypted, which would be much worse. Nor do you have to decompress already compressed data before encrypting. But if somebody hands you data to encrypt and store, don't compress it as part of the encrypting phase.
