[name=Redis, majorVersion=6]; user must register resolver or explicitly set 'hibernate.dialect'

After successfully creating datasource for redis in wildfly, I am now trying to make connection to redis from my spring project. I am quite new to Spring, naturally I have stumbled upon some issues.

My pom.xml looks like this

NOTE: This is a large project having multiple dependencies.

I have created a Student.java

import org.springframework.data.redis.core.RedisHash;import java.io.Serializable;@RedisHash("Student")public class Student implements Serializable {    private long id;    private String name;    //boilerplate constructor, setter and getter    }

I have also created a StudentRepository.java

import org.springframework.data.repository.CrudRepository;public interface StudentRepository extends CrudRepository<Student, Long> {}

So far so good. I built the war and deployed in wildfly. In server.log, I get the following output

2023-12-21 09:32:34,915 INFO  [org.springframework.data.repository.config.RepositoryConfigurationDelegate] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 393) Finished Spring Data repository scanning in 55 ms.

Upon my search on internet on hibernate.dialect, I found that one needs to create hibernate.cfg.xml in resources directory with the content

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN""http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd"><hibernate-configuration><session-factory><property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.ogm.datastore.redis.RedisHashDialect</property></session-factory></hibernate-configuration>

But the dialect issue remains. I am not sure what to do now. Any help will be appreciated.

NOTE: Sorry for the long post, I have tried to be as detailed as possible.
