Zusammenfassung:Examples disclosed herein relate to partial cache coherence. In some examples disclosed herein, a node connected to a memory fabric may include local cache connected to a local processor and a memory coherency proxy to. The memory coherency proxy may configure a portion of a fabric memory on the memory fabric as a proxy backing memory and expose the proxy backing memory to other nodes in the memory fabric as a fictitious local memory on the node, and may implement partial coherency for memory requests directed to the fictitious local memory. The fictitious local memory may have a memory address region different from a memory address region of a native local memory on the node.
