Abstract:
The present technology is directed to a system and method for automatic triggering of relevant code segments corresponding to a sequence of code segments or function codes having a preferred execution order. The automatic triggering action is based on the snooping of a response generated from an execution of a previous code segment. Information with respect to the next code segment in the preferred execution order may be obtained by directing a network proxy, such as Envoy to snoop the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) field of a response packet being forwarded to a client entity. In this way, a network proxy may preemptively spawn and instantiate the following function codes (pointed to by the snooped Uniform Resource Identifier) prior to receiving the corresponding client request. As such, by the time a client request for the subsequent function code is received the code ready for execution.
