Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to maintaining transaction consistency when using a columnar cache. The columnar cache can be initially loaded with all-visible data, and as the data gets modified, respective data is invalidated in the columnar cache. As more data gets invalidated in the columnar cache, respective data can be refreshed in the columnar cache. As part of the refresh, the latest all-visible data can be populated while the queries are still using the old data in the columnar cache. When all the queries transition to use the newly populated data, old data can be removed from the columnar cache. A query can use valid blocks of columnar cache and go to a row store for invalid blocks. When a query starts to use the columnar cache, a request can be submitted to asynchronously prefetch the invalid blocks from the row store.
