The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for multiplexed communication for duplex applications. Embodiments of the invention facilitate a multiplexed variant of long polling over a request/reply communication medium that (potentially significantly) reduces the resources utilized when exchanging messages. The lightweight address generation mechanism facilitates polling and routing for a pool of many clients and many services while minimizing allocated resources to each established session. Further, the benefits of a lower latency bidirectional communication medium between clients and services can be utilized.

Multiplexed communication for duplex applications

Encoding and/or decoding of messages. On the encoding end, a composite encoder encodes message from an internal format that is used by internal system components into an external format. However, the composite encoder may encode the outgoing messages into different external formats on a per-message basis. For incoming message, a composite decoder decodes incoming messages from any one of a plurality of external formats into the internal format also on a per-message basis. A per-message report mechanism permits internal system components and the encoding/decoding components to communicate information regarding the encoding or decoding on a per message basis. This permits a higher level of collaboration and complexity in the encoding and decoding process.

Encoding/decoding while allowing varying message formats per message

A web services namespace pertains to an infrastructure for enabling creation of a wide variety of applications. The infrastructure provides a foundation for building message-based applications of various scale and complexity. The infrastructure or framework provides APIs for basic messaging, secure messaging, reliable messaging and transacted messaging. In some embodiments, the associated APIs are factored into a hierarchy of namespaces in a manner that balances utility, usability, extensibility and versionability.
