An Internet Object is a file, document or response to a query for an Internet service such as FTP, HTTP, or gopher. A client requests an Internet object from a caching proxy; if the object is not already cached, the proxy server fetches the object (either from the host specified in the URL or from a parent or sibling cache) and delivers it to the client.
