Abstract
Techniques are disclosed in which a server computer system manages a database cache for multiple different tenants. The system may retrieve, from a database cache storing data for different tenants, a set of key-value entries and cache metadata for the set of key-value entries. Further, the system may identify, based on analyzing keys of key-value entries, tenants corresponding to respective ones of the set of key-value entries. The system may generate, based on the identified tenants and cache metadata for cache entries corresponding to the identified tenants, current usage metrics for the database cache. Based on the current usage metrics for the cache, the system may determine whether to adjust one or more operation parameters of the cache. Disclosed cache management techniques may advantageously allow for analysis of cache usage metrics for individual tenants and more efficient use of the cache (e.g., by altering cache parameters for individual tenants).
