Patent number: 10877825Abstract: An example system and method facilitates operation of a networked software application, i.e., client application which communicates with a network resource (e.g., web service) during periods of intermittent network connectivity, by selectively intercepting and shredding and/or unshredding service response messages. In a specific embodiment, the example system includes one or more pluggable shredders and unshredders that are used to explode a complex REpresentational State Transfer (REST) payload into its constituent structured primitive objects for ease of consumption by the User Interface (UI) of the client application. The exploded, i.e., shredded response message payloads are stored in local cache, where the cached data is strategically structured as compared to the received REST payload. One or more unshredders selectively reconstruct one or more REST response message payloads if client reissues the corresponding REST request message while offline.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2019Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Blake Sullivan, Kentaro Kinebuchi, Jing Wu, Min Lu, Andrew Schwartz, Max Starets
