Method, apparatus, and computer program product for implementing customizable caching strategy based on traffic pattern to optimize memory footprint and reduce latency

摘要

A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided to implement a customized caching strategy which optimizes the implementation based on usage patterns. In the context of a method a client request for a service is intercepted and an authentication check is performed for the client request based on cached data. In an instance in which the authentication check succeeds, the method performs an authorization check for the client request based on the cached data. In an instance in which the authorization check succeeds, the method forwards the client request for the service to the service. A corresponding apparatus and a computer program product are also provided.
