requestrelated

Requestrelated is a term used in software engineering to describe data, operations, or context that are associated with a single client request within a computing system. It denotes content that is relevant only for the processing of that specific request, as opposed to global or persisted state.

The term is typically formed from the words "request" and "related" and often appears in documentation, code comments, and logging. It signals that the referenced information should be considered in the scope of the current request and not beyond its lifetime.

In practice, requestrelated concepts appear in several areas of software design. In web frameworks, per-request context or request-scoped storage holds data such as authentication details, locale, and correlation identifiers. In logging and tracing, requestrelated fields help correlate events across components and services. API design may include requestrelated metadata to aid auditing, debugging, or user behavior analysis.

Examples include a middleware that assigns a unique request ID as part of the requestrelated context, or a handler that attaches user and session information to requestrelated storage for downstream components. This concept is distinct from global state and is intended to be transient and scoped to the active request.
