Abstract

Techniques for partial object caching are disclosed. For example, a method includes receiving, at a content delivery network (CDN) from a end user device, a request for at least a portion of an object, retrieving the portion of the object from a content site and delivering the portion of the object to the end user device, and caching, in a partial object cache, the portion of the object. Further, the method may include receiving a subsequent request for the portion of the object, and retrieving, from the partial object cache the portion of the object and delivering the portion of the object in response to the subsequent request.
