Abstract
A method and apparatus for obtaining data from a cluster of cache nodes in a tree-based structure is disclosed. A querying cache node outside a partition group queries data of a cache node of the partition group. The partition group is made of one or more cache nodes of the cluster, where an instance of a cache node in the partition group is copied to each cache node in the partition group. The instance of the data of the cache nodes of the partition group is copied to the querying cache node. The partition group is adjusted to include the querying cache node as a member of the partition group.
