Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for validating accounts in an online service. One method includes an operation for determining if accounts in an online service are valid and compliant, which includes checking one or more compliance conditions defined for the account. Further, the method includes operations for storing, in a cache memory, information for the accounts that are determined to be valid and compliant, and for receiving a request for information for one or more of the accounts. The method further includes operations for accessing the cache memory to obtain information for the at least one account, the information comprising an indication if the account is valid and compliant. Access to the information is blocked for the accounts associated with the request that are not valid and compliant. The method includes returning, for the accounts that are valid and compliant, the obtained information in response to the request.
