When the cache is enabled, operations like getKeyVersion, getMetadata, and getCurrentKey will sometimes return cached data without consulting the backing KeyProvider. Cached values are flushed when keys are deleted or modified. Note: This setting is beneficial

multiple KMSs are used, or when the key operations are from
