SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENHANCING PERFORMANCE OF A CLUSTERED SOURCE CODE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

A clustered source code management system is described. The system comprises a plurality of cluster nodes, a shared file server storing repository data, and a load balancer. Each of the plurality of cluster nodes is configured to receive an incoming request sent from a client computer, the incoming request being a source code management request to access repository data stored on the shared file server and process the incoming request to determine if a type of the incoming request is a cacheable request type. If the incoming request is of a cacheable request type, the cluster node is configured to determine if a valid cached response to the incoming request is available on storage media locally accessible to the cluster node; and, if so, respond to the incoming request by communicating the valid cached response to the client computer.
