Abstract

Embodiments are disclosed for a prefetching method that may include copying, in response to a search query, a first bucket from a remote storage to a cache. The first bucket may include first data associated with the search query. The method may further include identifying a first file type associated with a first file in the first bucket. The first file may be associated with a usage status. The method may further include accessing, based on the search query, a second bucket from the remote storage. The second bucket may include second data associated with the search query. The method may further include identifying a second file in the second bucket having the first file type, and copying, in response to the usage status indicating that the first file was used in processing the search query, the second file from the remote storage to the cache.
