<p>A system and method for publishing a file on a network is disclosed. A caching service is disclosed that reduces the load on the publisher's server by publishing that the file is at a fictitious network location. Requests directed to the fictitious location are received by the caching service and the fictitious network location is parsed to determine what file is being requested. If the caching service already has a copy of the file, then the copy is transmitted to the requestor without alerting to the requestor that the address is fictitious. If the caching service does not have a copy of the file, then a copy is automatically obtained based on information contained in the fictitious network location.</p> |
