Using Oracle8i Cache, you can store frequently requested data on the middle tier. Oracle8i Cache provides a cache to hold the data. When a user requests data, Oracle8i Cache checks if the data is stored in the middle-tier cache. If so, Oracle8i Cache returns the data from the cache to the user. If not, Oracle8i Cache routes the request to the origin database, which returns the data, through the middle tier, to the user. When a user updates data, Oracle8i Cache routes the update directly to the origin database. Oracle8i Cache eliminates the network round-trip to the origin database for many queries.
