System and method for making requests on behalf of a mobile device based on atomic processes for mobile network traffic relief are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for simulating traffic requests from a mobile device, which can be implemented on a system includes, predicting that a request is to be made by the mobile device, in advance of the request being sent to a destination by the mobile device and making the request, at an entity separate from the mobile device, on behalf of the mobile device to the destination. The entity can simulate the request and based on a traffic pattern of outgoing requests by an application on the mobile device.
