Abstract

This disclosure is directed to methods and systems for managing variants of a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) object. An intermediary, between at least one client and a server, may generate variants of an HTTP object. The HTTP object may be received from the server responsive to a first request for the HTTP object. The variants may include a first variant generated based on a first parameter of a plurality of parameters. The plurality of parameters may be identified based on one or more requests for the HTTP object from the at least one client. The intermediary may store the variants of the HTTP object in a cache. The intermediary may retrieve, responsive to interception of a second request to the server for the HTTP object and based on a determination of the first parameter from the second request, the first variant from the variants stored in the cache.
