Systems and methods are described herein for connecting client devices to applications on a server using web sockets. In one aspect, the systems and methods described provide for a routing table that may be used to direct communications between a client device and an application on a web server. The routing table may overcome challenges of implementing web sockets under current constraints of the web socket specification, the HTTP specification, and server implementations.
