System and method for routing database requests to a database and a cache

摘要

A system and method for routing database requests from application logic to a cache and a database, including receiving a database request from the application logic, determining whether the database request is informational or transactional, routing the database request to the cache if the database request is informational, and routing the database request to the database if the database request is transactional. A first example embodiment includes a database which is accessed using a first driver, a cache, and a second driver which determines whether database requests received from application logic are informational or transactional, where informational database requests are routed to the cache and transactional database requests are routed to the database using the first driver.
