Abstract
Techniques for implementing access pattern-based distribution of key-value content in a distributed key-value store comprising a plurality of nodes are provided. In one set of embodiments, a node in the plurality of nodes can receive a request to create a key-value entry. The node can further determine whether the key-value entry is associated with a first (e.g., global) scope or a second (e.g., local) scope. If the key-value entry is associated with the first scope, the node can cause the key-value entry to be replicated on every node in the plurality of nodes. On the other hand, if the key-value entry is associated with the second scope, the node cause the key-value entry to be stored solely on that node.
