    The more common term is self populating cache.

    In Ehcache docs a SelfPopulatingCache (= pull-through cache) is described as a:

    A selfpopulating decorator for Ehcache that creates entries on demand.

    That means when asking the SelfPopulatingCache for a value and that value is not in the cache, it will create this value for you.
