Technology is disclosed for data prefetching on a computing device utilizing a cloud based file system. The technology can receive a current execution state and a data access pattern associated with an instance of an application executing on a computing device. The technology can further receive a data access pattern associated with another instance of the application executing on another computing device. The technology can utilize the received data access patterns to determine one or more future access requests for a subset of data associated with the application, where the one or more future access requests is a function of the current execution state of the application executing on the computing device. The technology can generate a prefetching profile utilizing the determined subset of data.
