In an example implementation of the disclosed technology, a method includes predicting, by a computing device, a destination server that is predicted to be the destination of a message from a sending device connected to the computing device. The method also includes determining whether a connection exists between the computing device and the destination server. The method also includes, responsive to determining that no connection exists, determining a connection and caching the connection at the computing device. The method also includes, responsive to receiving a message for dispatch to the destination server, dispatching the message to the destination server via the connection.

Systems and methods for direct dispatching of mobile messages

In an example implementation of the disclosed technology, a method includes assigning a computing device to a region associated with a region server that comprises a plurality of region server instances. The method also includes generating device-to-region mapping and transmitting a replica of the device-to-region mapping to a messaging server instance and connection server instance. Further, the method includes receiving local device connection information comprising connection information relating the computing device and the connection server instance. The method also includes outputting the local device connection information to the plurality of region server instances. Additionally, the method includes receiving a message for delivery to the computing device and, responsive to accessing the local device connection information, transmitting the message to the connection server instance identified by the local device connection information.

Systems and methods for adaptive associative routing for mobile messaging

The disclosed technology covers messaging systems and methods, and computer program products embodying such systems and methods. A computer program product may include a computer-readable storage medium with instructions executable by one or more processors to perform a method. The method may include receiving, at a message server configured to receive a plurality of messages for a plurality of computing devices, a first message intended for a first user profile. The first user profile and one or more other user profiles may exist on a single computing device. The method may also include receiving a first status update from the first computing device indicating that the first user profile is stopped or non-active, and postponing delivery of the first message to the first computing device, based on the first user profile being stopped or non-active. These and other aspects of messaging systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed herein.

Systems and methods for message delivery to mobile devices supporting multiple users

In a client-server environment providing hosted services, an application service server receives from a client a first request for hosted services associated with a user-specified domain name. If the server does not provide hosted services for that domain name, the server designates the first request as pending and provides a limited set of the hosted services in association with the first request. The server provides a complete set of the hosted services requested in the first request if it can be established that a first user associated with the first request has appropriate authority to make administrative changes for the network domain designated by the domain-name. In some embodiments, the server denies the first request and cancels the limited services if it is not shown within a predetermined period of time that the first user has the appropriate authority.

Application verification for hosted services

A system and method is disclosed for authenticating a user using locally stored credentials. A website is configured to provide, to a web browser, a login page, including header information which informs the web browser that the website may accept an automatic login. In response to receiving, from the web browser, credential information and a request to login to the website, a login token having an expiration time is generated by an authentication server and returned to the web browser. The web browser provides the login token to an authentication address associated with the website, before the expiration time, to automatically login to the website.

System and method for authenticating to a participating website using locally stored credentials

The disclosed technology covers messaging systems and methods, and computer program products embodying such systems and methods. An example computer-implemented method may include receiving, at a message server, a plurality of messages directed toward a plurality of computing devices, the plurality of messages including a first message directed toward a first user profile. A first computing device may be identified as being associated with the first user profile. It may be determined, by a computer processor, that the first user profile is inactive on the first computing device and that a second user profile is active on the first computing device. In that case, the first message may be held at the message server due to the first user profile being inactive. Other implementations of the messaging systems and methods are also disclosed herein.
