Should I use ETS or a GenServer when I just need a K/V store
There's also ConCache or Cachex which will handle the clunky ETS interface for you.

Elixir: Practical Concurrency Cookbook
However, while Elixir does provide the necessary abstractions to make caching easy, my recommendation on this one is usually to lean on the community's shoulders. Saša Jurić, for example, wrote a while back ConCache which does exactly this, but there are many others out there. The good thing about not implementing one it's own is that there are many edge cases when dealing with concurrency and it's easy to get it wrong the first few times. As they say, the two hardest problems in computer science are naming and caching.

Transitioning from AWS ecosystem to BEAM/Elixir
I know that you said that you don't want to be locked into another cloud, but I would recommend a read at https://fly.io/blog/building-a-distributed-turn-based-game-system-in-elixir/ to see how easier it is to build a distributed application in elixir than in other stacks, just think of fly.io as the equivalent to k8s, providing just the infrastructure.
