Abstract

Methods and systems for efficient scaling of a domain name system (DNS) service architecture. In some embodiments a plurality of messaging servers may be separated into a number of pools. A plurality of client devices may be connected to a messaging server within a pool. When a notification is received for a target client device, a backend server may identify the pool that includes the messaging server that is connected to the target client device. The backend server may send the notification to the group of messaging servers within the identified pool while avoiding sending the notification to messaging servers within different pools.
