Content management
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- monitoring, at a content delivery network service provider, requests originally initiated from a first group of client computing devices, wherein the content delivery network service provider hosts content on behalf of a content provider;
associating content corresponding to the monitored requests with the first group of client computing devices to determine a first group of content collectively corresponding to the first group;
dynamically determining a second group of client computing devices based at least in part on the requests from the first group of client computing devices, wherein the second group of client computing devices is different from the first group of client computing devices;
identifying a second set of content for the second group of client computing devices based at least in part on the first group of content, wherein the identified second set of content is different from the first group of content; and
preloading at least a portion of the identified second set of content at a cache component authorized to service the second group of client computing devices,wherein the method is performed by one or more computing devices of the content delivery network service provider.

Abstract
A system and method for management and processing of resource requests is provided. A content delivery network service provider determines a class associated with a set of client computing devices and monitors resources requests for the determined class. The content delivery network service provider then identifies at least one cache component for providing additional content, such as advertisement content or other additional content provided in anticipation of future resource requests, to client computing devices as a function of the determined class. In other embodiments, instead of cache components, the content delivery network service provider identifies a second set of client computing devices as a function of the determined class for providing the additional content information.

5. A method comprising:
-
obtaining a request for content originally initiated from a first client computing device at a content delivery network service provider, wherein the content delivery network service provider hosts content on behalf of a content provider; determining a class of client computing devices associated with the first client computing device; associating the class of client computing devices with the requested content; correlating a second class associated with other client computing devices serviced by a cache component of the content delivery network service provider with the first class of client computing devices as a function of requests made by the first class of client computing devices to the content delivery network service provider; and in anticipation of subsequent requests from the other client computing devices, preloading different content at the cache component as a function of the content collectively requested by the first class of client computing devices, wherein the method is performed by one or more computing devices of the content delivery network service provider. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9)

10. A system comprising:
one or more computing devices associated with a content delivery network service provider, wherein any one or combination of the one or more computing devices is operable to; monitor resource requests originally initiated from a first group of client computing devices, wherein the content delivery network service provider hosts content on behalf of a content provider; associate content corresponding to the monitored resource requests with the first group of client computing devices to determine a first group of content collectively corresponding to the first group; dynamically determine a second group of client computing devices based at least in part on the requests from the first group of client computing devices, wherein the second group of client computing devices is different from the first group of client computing devices; identify one or more resources for a second group of client computing devices based at least in part on the first group of content, wherein the one or more resources for the second group is identified from another portion of the content hosted on behalf of the content provider and wherein the identified one or more resources are different from the first group of content; and preload at least one of the identified one or more resources at a cache component authorized to service the second group of client computing devices. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)

14. A system comprising:
one or more computing devices associated with a content delivery network service provider, wherein any one or combination of the one or more computing devices is operable to; obtain a request for content originally initiated from a first client computing device at the content delivery network service provider, wherein the content delivery network service provider hosts content on behalf of a content provider; determine a class of client computing devices associated with the first client computing device; associate the class of client computing devices with the content requested from the first client computing device; correlate a second class associated with other client computing devices serviced by a cache component of the content delivery network service provider with the first class of client computing devices as a function of requests made by the first class of client computing devices to the content delivery network service provider; and in anticipation of subsequent requests from the other client computing devices, preload different content at the cache component as a function of the content collectively requested by the first class of client computing devices. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)
