Abstract
The disclosure generally describes methods, software, and systems, including a method for managing co-pending, identical data requests. An initial request is received for a first data object. Processing of the initial request is initiated, including dispatching the initial request to a server. Prior to receiving a response to the dispatched initial request, a first identical request is received. The first identical request is held without dispatching. Prior to receiving the response to the dispatched initial request, a second identical request is received. The first identical request is disregarded and the second identical request is held without dispatching the second identical request to the server. The responsive data object is received in response to the initial request. The responsive data object is provided in response to the second identical request, the providing occurring without initiating processing, by the server, of the first identical request and the second identical request.
