US Patent 10412187 Batching data requests and responses

The described technology is generally directed towards batching two or more data requests into a batch request that is sent to a data-providing entity such as a client data access layer coupled to a data service. Described is maintaining a mapping of the requests to requesting entities so that the responses to a batched request, which may be separately streamed, may be assembled into a batch response to the requesting entity. Also described is multiplexing a plurality of requests for the same data item into a single request, which may be added to a batch request, and de-multiplexing the single response into separate responses to each requesting entity.
