Efficient response of common information model (CIM) server

摘要

Once a request is received from a common information model (CIM) Object Manager (CIMOM), a CIM server may respond quickly and efficiently by utilizing data which is stored in advance of the request from the CIMOM. This previously stored copy of soon-to-be-requested data may be stored in anticipation of receiving the request from the CIMOM for the data, and may be quickly returned to the CIMOM upon receiving the request for it. A CIM profile provider may generate this pre-stored data for a device in order to respond to the request, and a CIM caching provider may receive the data, store the data, receive the request for the data, and provide the data in response to the request, according to one embodiment.
