Abstract
Media, methods, and systems are disclosed for mitigating network resource contention. Event scheduling details are received regarding one or more virtual events. In response to determining that an upcoming virtual event will begin within a predetermined time threshold, various steps are performed. First, a predicted number of event participants is determined. Next, database artifacts associated with the upcoming virtual event are prefetched. Then static event display resources are accessed prior to a start of the upcoming virtual event, and the database artifacts and the static event display resources are cached. A network protocol request to access network resources is received from a client device. The database artifacts and the static event display resources are pushed to a client-side cache associated with the client device, and a minimal network response is transmitted to the client device.
