Abstract

Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and processes to provide coherency across disjoint caches in clustered environments. It is determined whether a data object is owned by an owner node, where the owner node is one of multiple nodes of a cluster. If the owner node for the data object is identified by the determining, a request is sent to the owner node for the data object. However, if the owner node for the data object is not identified by the determining, selects a node in the cluster is selected as the owner node, and the request for the data object is sent to the owner node.
