Systems and methods for caching file system collections atomically. The systems and methods perform operations comprising: receiving a request to access a collection of data comprising a plurality of files stored on a storage device; in response to receiving the request, transferring the collection of data from the storage device to a first subfolder in a cache associated with the storage device; generating a lock file comprising a reference to the first subfolder in the cache; and atomically controlling access to the collection of data in the first subfolder and removal of the collection of data in the first subfolder from the cache via the lock file.
