Abstract
A system for updating Web pages stored in cache based on modifications to data stored in a database is disclosed. The system for updating stored Web pages may be part of a larger system having a database management system for storing data used to generate Web pages. The database management system is capable of identifying modified data stored in the database. The system for updating stored Web pages is comprised of one or more servers programmed for maintaining associations between the stored Web pages and the stored data, and receiving the identity of modified data from the memory management system. In addition, the servers are capable of determining, from the identified modified data and the maintained associations, which stored Web pages are associated with the identified modified data. Furthermore, the servers are capable of communicating an update command to the cache that contains the stored Web pages associated with the identified modified data, for the purpose of updating the stored Web pages.
