Abstract

Enhanced browser caching is provided through a file identifier attribute employed at a front end server level for deterministic marking A front end server may use an attribute of a file identifier such as an attached parameter, a pattern, a directory associated with the file, or similar attributes to change the links it emits into other content in order to prompt the browsers to request new files. The attribute may be changed (e.g. incremented) based on a web change associated with the content being served.
