Abstract: A system and method for routing database requests from application logic to a cache and a database, including receiving a database request from the application logic, determining whether the database request is informational or transactional, routing the database request to the cache if the database request is informational, and routing the database request to the database if the database request is transactional. A first example embodiment includes a database which is accessed using a first driver, a cache, and a second driver which determines whether database requests received from application logic are informational or transactional, where informational database requests are routed to the cache and transactional database requests are routed to the database using the first driver.

Abstract: A system and method for selecting database objects to be stored in a cache based on the cache-worthiness of the objects. The technique collects cache-worthiness data for a plurality of objects in a database, determines a cache-worthiness value using the collected data for each of the plurality of objects, and selects one or more of the plurality of objects to be stored in the cache, wherein the objects are selected using the values.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a system and method for delivering dynamic content to a client coupled to a network, wherein the client sends a request for the dynamic content to an origin site. The origin site is coupled to the network and also has access to a database. According to the present invention, a plurality of caches are coupled to the network, wherein each cache includes replicated data from the database and application logic to generate the dynamic content using the replicated data. A router redirects the client from the origin site to a cache selected from the plurality of caches, wherein the selected cache provides the dynamic content to the client.
