Abstract: In one embodiment, the invention provides an apparatus for caching data in a network, with the apparatus including a proxy cache configured to receive request for an object from a client and to fetch data blocks from a server. The proxy cache may be configured to cache the data blocks in a hierarchical relationship within the object. The object may be, for example, a data file or a directory. The data blocks that are cached in the proxy cache define an active data set which is based upon a request from a client.

Abstract: A network caching system has a multi-protocol caching filer coupled to an origin server to provide storage virtualization of data served by the filer in response to data access requests issued by multi-protocol clients over a computer network. The multi-protocol caching filer includes a file system configured to manage a sparse volume that “virtualizes” a storage space of the data to thereby provide a cache function that enables access to data by the multi-protocol clients. To that end, the caching filer further includes a multi-protocol engine configured to translate the multi-protocol client data access requests into generic file system primitive operations executable by both the caching filer and the origin server.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of transforming a request from a client to a proxy cache, the method comprising: receiving a request from a client, where the request is based upon a first open standard protocol; and translating the request from the first open standard protocol into a second open standard protocol at a file system level; and transmitting the request in the second open standard protocol to a server.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the invention provides an apparatus for caching data in a network, with the apparatus including a proxy cache (115) configured to receive request for an object from a client (105) and to fetch data blocks from a server (110). The proxy cache may be configured to cache the data blocks in a hierarchical relationship within the object. The object may be, for example, a data file or a directory. The data blocks that are cached in the proxy cache define an active data set which is based upon a request from a client.
