  • Patent number: 9390193
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a system, computer-implemented method, and a computer-readable medium for delaying the storage of data. Data that manipulates website data is provided from a web server to a client device in response to a request for a webpage. Data is initially stored in a temporary memory storage. The temporary memory storage is associated with a browser and stores data before data is moved to a persistent memory storage. A notification is generated that indicates that data was received and is intended to be stored persistently or manipulate, access or rely on website data in the persistent memory storage. Depending on the response to the notification, the system determines how data in temporary memory storage will be processed and whether data can be stored in the persistent memory storage or manipulate, access and rely on website data in the persistent memory storage.
