Hello,

I [asked](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16560297/how-to-load-ember-data-data-when-app-starts) this question on SO but it didn’t help me much. I would like to know it is is possible at this moment in Ember / Ember-Data.

I don’t find it quite useful to load the same data whenever I move around my app, going to a route and then back.

Is is possible?

Is there a prescribed way of doing this without using ember-data? The App I’m working is only doing reads from an API.
