Abstract: A technique involves placing a data acceleration engine between an end user device and a host device. The host device provides data associated with a client application to the data acceleration engine, which provides the data to the end user device. If the data acceleration engine is on the host device, content from a datastore is served to the data acceleration engine as if the data acceleration engine were a client running the client application locally; therefore, latency normally associated with a network between the content datastore and the client device is eliminated. If the data acceleration engine is on the end user device and has received at least some data in advance of a relevant query, responses to the query also do not have latency associated with a network. The data acceleration engine can be implemented as a series of data acceleration engines between end user and host devices.

Abstract: A method may include receiving a request for a resource on a database server, the request being from a request initiator coupled to a network. Redundant data in the request is identified based on the data optimization rules, where the redundant data is unnecessary for the database server to satisfy the request for the resource. The redundant data is removed from the request based on the data optimization rules to create an optimized request. The optimized request is provided, using the network to the database server.

Abstract: A method of optimizing the interaction between an application or database and a database server, comprising the steps of: (a) routing data between the application or database and the database server through an optimisation system; (b) the optimisation system analysing the data and applying rules to the data to speed up the interaction between the application or database and the database server.
