Abstract
The present invention discloses a solution of a server-side result distribution service software program. The program can receive and store results related to a request context from different content providing servers. Asynchronous requests can be received from a client, which initiated a content request that defines the request context. A level of completeness for the request results that satisfies the received client request can be determined. The level of completeness can be compared against a previously established threshold. Either dynamically processed results or previously cached results can be delivered to the client depending upon an outcome of the comparing step. Server-side operations that produce the dynamically processed results can be operations initiated after the content request is sent by the client. Previously cached results can be generated from processes initiated before the content request is sent by the client.
