Patent number: 10749955Abstract: Techniques for an online cache migration in a distributed caching system using a hybrid migration process include an application server in a network environment determining that an online cache migration from a source cache to a target cache is running. Based on this, the application server selectively mirroring writes to the source cache in the target cache. Meanwhile, an external migration controller migrates the cache from the source cache to the target cache in a way that does not require the external migration controller or the application server to synchronize their concurrent access to the source and target caches yet still allows the application server to read, write, and delete cache data in the source cache during the migration.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2018Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Stephen Rago, Jessica Kenney, Alex Jeffrey Palkovic, Aleksandr Bakhturin, Gustavo Gonzalez
