US Patent 12008041 Shared cache for multiple index services in nonrelational databases

A computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a processing unit, from a first tenant, a query to retrieve data from a nonrelational database system. The method further includes determining, by the processing unit, that an index associated with the query is cached in a shared index cache, wherein the shared index cache stores indexes for a plurality of tenants. The method further includes retrieving, by the processing unit, a result of the query based on the index in the shared index cache. The method further includes outputting, by the processing unit, the result of the query.
