Abstract
The described technology is generally directed towards generating content selection graphs in an in-memory content selection graph data store in association with respective start times that indicate when the respective graphs become active. When a content selection graph is needed for a given timepoint, a node identifier is used to obtain response data that is cached for that node identifier and timepoint. Edge data associated with the node identifier is used to determine a next node for obtaining its response data for caching, and so on. The response data can be prebuilt, e.g., generated in a set of active graphs for different client types, so that a response can be returned generally as is from the active graph in the set for the node identifier and that particular client type. For efficiency, operations can be used to avoid processing a node identifier more than once when generating a graph.
