System and method for suppressing DNS requests

A method for domain resolution suppression, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a first server from a client device, a first content request including one of a first routable IP address and a first domain name;
• retrieving, by the first server, first content referenced by the first content request from a second server corresponding to the one of the first routable IP address and the first domain name;
• and
• identifying, by the first server, one or more second domain names contained inside the first content;
• resolving, by the first server, the one or more second domain names by, for each second domain of the one or more second domain names:
• issuing one or more domain name service (DNS) requests including the each second domain name to one or more DNS servers;
• and
• receiving one or more responses, each response of the one or more responses including one or more second routable IP addresses associated with the each second domain name;
• returning, by the first server to the client device, (a) the first content referenced by the first content request, the first content containing the one or more second domain names, and (b) the one or more second routable IP addresses associated with the one or more second domain names contained inside the first content;
• wherein the method further comprises:
• storing, by the client device, the one or more second routable IP addresses associated with the one or more second domain names contained inside the first content;
• detecting, by the client device, a second content request from the application, the second content request including a requested domain, the requested domain being one of the one or more second domain names contained inside the first content;
• in response to detecting that the requested domain of the second content request is one of the one or more second domain names included in the first content, retrieving, by the client device, a routable IP address of the one or more second routable IP addresses corresponding to the requested domain;
• and
• transmitting, by the client device to one of the first server and a second server, the second content request including the routable IP address of the one or more second routable IP addresses corresponding to the requested domain.
