US 11,767,154 B2 · Facilitating inter-system data transfer with serialized data objects

Abstract

A computer server includes processor and memory hardware. The processor hardware executes instructions including parsing a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) request from a first user agent to identify a first data object matching a set of characteristics and generating a new data element based on the HTTP request. The instructions include, in response to the first data object being present: extracting a first set of serialized data elements and serializing them with the new data element to generate a second data object. The instructions include, in response to the first data object being absent and a user associated with the first user agent being identifiable: determining a second set of serialized data elements based on an identity of the user, and serializing them with the new data element to generate the second data object. The instructions include transmitting an HTTP response including the second data object.

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method comprising:

parsing a received hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) request from a user agent to identify a first impression cookie matching a set of characteristics;
generating a new impression based on the HTTP request;
updating an impression data structure based on the new impression;
in response to the first impression cookie being present,
extracting a first set of serialized impressions from the first impression cookie, and
generating a second impression cookie based on serializing the new impression and the first set of serialized impressions;
in response to the first impression cookie being absent and a user of the user agent being identifiable,
determining a second set of serialized impressions based on an identity of the user, and
generating the second impression cookie based on serializing the new impression and the second set of serialized impressions;
and
transmitting a HTTP response to the user agent, wherein the HTTP response includes the second impression cookie.
