A fleet of query accelerator nodes is established for a data store. Each accelerator node caches data items of the data store locally. In response to determining that an eviction criterion has been met, one accelerator node removes a particular data item from its local cache without notifying any other accelerator node. After the particular data item has been removed, a second accelerator node receives a read query for the particular data item and provides a response using a locally-cached replica of the data item.

Independent evictions from datastore accelerator fleet nodes

A fleet of query accelerator nodes is established for a data store. A particular node determines a write throughput limit for back-end writes from the fleet to the data store. A pool of write-back threads is established at the node. When a write request is received at the node, an entry is added to a selected partition of a write-back journal, and a write completion response is provided to the requester without applying the write to the data store. A write-back thread from the pool eventually schedules the back-end write.
