Abstract

A key problem in using caching technology for dynamic contents lies in update management. An update management scheme should be very efficient without imposing much extra burden to the system, especially to the original database server. We propose an scalable update management mechanism for query result caching in database-backed Web sites. Our mechanism employs a two-phase consistency checking method, which prunes out unaffected queries at the earliest possible moment. The method scales well with a high number of cached instances.
