A collaborative content management system allows users to access collaborative content items. When a client device accesses a shared collaborative content item, the client device displays a portion of the collaborative content item that falls within a viewport. The client application generates a notification count of notification events associated with content that is contained in the collaborative content item and positioned below the viewport, and the client device displays the notification count in a graphical element adjacent to a bottom viewport edge. A similar process generates a second notification count of the notification events associated with content positioned above the viewport and displays a graphical element with the second notification count adjacent to the top viewport edge. The user can iteratively select one of the graphical elements to move the content of the collaborative content item to a portion corresponding to the next notification event above or below the viewport.

Techniques for an online cache migration in a distributed caching system using a hybrid migration process include an application server in a network environment determining that an online cache migration from a source cache to a target cache is running. Based on this, the application server selectively mirroring writes to the source cache in the target cache. Meanwhile, an external migration controller migrates the cache from the source cache to the target cache in a way that does not require the external migration controller or the application server to synchronize their concurrent access to the source and target caches yet still allows the application server to read, write, and delete cache data in the source cache during the migration.
