US Patent 10482062 Independent evictions from datastore accelerator fleet nodes

A fleet of query accelerator nodes is established for a data store. Each accelerator node caches data items of the data store locally. In response to determining that an eviction criterion has been met, one accelerator node removes a particular data item from its local cache without notifying any other accelerator node. After the particular data item has been removed, a second accelerator node receives a read query for the particular data item and provides a response using a locally-cached replica of the data item.
