Abstract
A high-speed content transformation method, system and apparatus. The method can include inspecting a request for transcoded content to determine input documents required to produce the requested transcoded content; determining whether the input documents have been characterized as standalone, and further determining freshness criteria for the input documents which are determined to have been characterized as standalone; locating in cache storage previously generated transcoded content corresponding to the input documents determined to have been characterized as standalone; and, serving the previously generated transcoded content in response to the request rather than generating the requested transcoded content using the input documents where the previously transcoded content meets the freshness criteria.
