Abstract: A method and apparatus for cache management of distributed objects have been disclosed. A query strategy, based on a fetch strategy and a merge strategy, may be used to query a database and reconcile data in a local cache. In one approach, a merge action depends upon whether an entity was added, deleted, or changed relative to the original version of the entity as it was last fetched.
