  • Patent number: 10142436
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques and systems for controlling a broadcast mode and a timer mode to update data stored in respective caches of multiple cache servers. When a cache server is operating in the broadcast mode, the cache server receives a data update or a notification of a data update from a broadcast server. When a cache server is operating in the timer mode, the cache server updates its cache without the use of, or reliance upon, the broadcast server. A cache server is configured to operate in the broadcast mode based on a determination that the broadcast server is capable of broadcasting (e.g., sending) messages and/or data updates to the cache servers. In contrast, a cache server is configured to operate in the timer mode based on a determination that the broadcast server is incapable of broadcasting messages and/or data updates to the cache servers.
