  • System and method for database cache synchronization across multiple interpreted code engines
    Patent number: 6633862
    Abstract: A method for synchronizing data sharing across multiple interpreted code engines is described. The method includes comparing a database timestamp with a first cache timestamp responsive to an attempt to access the first cache. Then, the method disallows access to the first cache if the database timestamp is not equal to the first cache timestamp. Finally, the method reloads the first cache with data from the database; and sets the first cache timestamp to equal the database timestamp.
