Abstract
Systems and methods for distributed shared caching in a clustered file system, wherein coordination between the distributed caches, their coherency and concurrency management, are all done based on the granularity of data segments rather than files. As a consequence, this new caching system and method provides enhanced performance in an environment of intensive access patterns to shared files.
