Abstract: An apparatus and method for off-loading application components to edge servers are provided. An application is made edge-aware by defining which components of the application may be run from an edge server, and which components cannot be run from an edge server. When a request is received that is to be processed by an application on an origin server, a determination is made as to whether the application contains edgable components. If so, an edgified version of the application is created. When a request is received that is handled by a component that may be run on the edge server, the request is handled by that component on the edge server. When a request is received that is handled by a component that is not edgable, the request is passed to a proxy agent which then provides the request to a broker agent on the origin server.

Abstract: In a Java-based environment, a dynamic proxy runtime provides a client with the ability to asynchronously invoke an interface method, thereby unblocking the client and allowing it to perform other tasks while waiting for results to be returned from the runtime. The original interface is not redefined nor is the real target object implementation modified. Rather, the runtime defines rules which the client employs to define an additional asynchronous interface to supplement the original interface.

Abstract: Computer implemented method, system and computer program product for searching for a class in a data processing system having classloaders organized in both a classloader hierarchy and a classloader network. A computer implemented method for searching for a class in a data processing system having classloaders organized in both a classloader hierarchy and a classloader network includes receiving a request to load a class at a request receiving classloader in the classloader hierarchy. The request to load a class is forwarded to a gateway classloader in the classloader network, wherein the gateway classloader is also in the classloader hierarchy. The requested class is then searched for in the classloader network.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to edgified content delivery and provide a method, system and computer program product for dispatching of request fragments from a response aggregating surrogate. In one embodiment, an edgified content distribution data processing system can include an origin server configured to server markup specified pages formed from dynamically arranged fragments and a surrogate server communicatively linked to the origin server over a computer communications network and acting as a surrogate at an edge of the network on behalf of the origin server. A dependency engine can be coupled to the surrogate server and can include program code enabled to group the fragments according to interdependencies among the fragments and to load fragment groups in sequence to satisfy the interdependencies.
