  • If-none-match for aggregated page distribution
    Patent number: 8595320
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for page request management for aggregated page content. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for page request management for aggregated page content can include issuing on behalf of a user a request for dynamically aggregated components in a page. The method further can include inserting into a header of the request a key computed as a combination of identifiers for the aggregated components and last modified data for the aggregated components. Finally, the method can include receiving in response to the request a new page of dynamically aggregated components for the user only if the computed key does not match a key computed for the new page. Otherwise, only a response is received indicating that the page has not been modified.
