Methods, processing units, and computer-readable media in a cloud-based database are described. Redo log records are applied to a page at a database replica only when an updated version of the page is requested at the database replica. A log cache may be used by a replica node of the database to track recent redo log records applicable to a given page. The recent redo log records stored in the log cache may be applied to update the page on-demand when an updated version of the page is requested. By applying only the redo log records applicable to pages that are currently being requested, processing resources may be used only to generate pages that are currently required. Methods for registering redo log records into the log cache by the master or replica server are also described.
