A method includes receiving, at an intermediation server, from a requesting device, a request for one or more items provided by a provider system; generating, at the intermediation server, an intermediate reply comprising data indicative of the one or more items provided by the provider system; determining, at the intermediation server, whether the request is eligible for direct distribution; in response to determining that the request is eligible for direct distribution, generating, at the intermediation server, an adjusted reply by: communicating with a hosted offer management system to receive instructions for adjusting the intermediate reply, the hosted offer management system providing hosted provider object services for the provider system; and adjusting, at the intermediation server, the intermediate reply based on the instructions; and providing, from the intermediation server, to the requesting device, the adjusted reply in response to the request.

System and method for load mitigation in request handling

A server: receives from at least one provider system, at least one provider object that includes provider object data representing at least one item provided by the provider system(s); generates an intermediation object, corresponding to the at least one provider object, including an intermediation object identifier that identifies the intermediation object and intermediation object data populated with at least a subset of the provider object data, the intermediation object and the intermediation object identifier omitting: the provider object data, and any provider object identifier in an original form; and provides the intermediation object, in place of the at least one provider object, to a client device that requested the at least one item, the intermediation object provided. The intermediation object identifier may enable the server to intermediate between the client device and the provider system(s) without storing the provider object and/or any provider object identifier.

Device, system and method for intermediation between a provider system that provides provider objects and a client device

A method of providing access to auxiliary data for a provider subsystem includes: storing offer data corresponding to an item, the offer data including (i) primary data, and (ii) auxiliary data defining an adjustment between the primary data and corresponding published data stored at an external repository; storing the offer data in an auxiliary repository; in response to an order request from a client subsystem: obtaining an order identifier corresponding to the offer data; and updating the auxiliary repository to store the order identifier in association with the offer data; in response to obtaining the order identifier, generating a reporting message for transmission to a provider subsystem, the reporting message containing the primary data and omitting the auxiliary data; and subsequent to generating the reporting message, retrieving the offer data from the auxiliary repository, and sending at least the auxiliary data to the provider subsystem.

System and method of auxiliary data access

To differentially respond to data requests, a request handling server stores (i) a predefined set of response definitions, each response definition having a distinct assigned virtual requester identifier, and (ii) for each virtual requester identifier, a selection criterion. The server receives a data request associated with one of a plurality of requesters, and includes (i) request parameters and (ii) a requester attribute set. The data request may be a request for travel product offers formatted according to the New Distribution Capability (NDC) standard. The server compares the requester attribute set with the selection criteria; based on the comparison, assigns a selected one of the virtual requester identifiers to the data request; retrieves an active one of the response definitions corresponding to the selected virtual requester identifier; obtains response data according to the request parameters and the active response definition; and transmits, in response to the data request, the response data.

System, method and apparatus for responding differentially to data requests

A method includes receiving, at an intermediation server; from a requesting device; a request for one or more items provided by a provider system; generating, at the intermediation server, an intermediate reply comprising data indicative of the one or more items provided by the provider system; determining, at the intermediation server, whether the request is eligible for direct distribution; in response to determining that the request is eligible for direct distribution, generating, at the intermediation server, an adjusted reply by: communicating with a hosted offer management system to receive instructions for adjusting the intermediate reply, the hosted offer management system providing hosted provider object services for the provider system; and adjusting, at the intermediation server, the intermediate reply based on the instructions; and providing; from the intermediation server, to the requesting device, the adjusted reply in response to the request.
