A second application independently inquires about the existance of the original data having the second format, independently of the first application, by querying the database for such original data, the second application expressing interest in such original data to the first application via a server, receiving any subsequently modified versions of such data having the second format directly from the first application, and storing the subsequently modified versions of such data having the second format in the second cache memo…
