20150052253 | MULTI-SERVER FRACTIONAL SUBDOMAIN DNS PROTOCOL - The present disclosure provides a detailed description of techniques used in methods, systems, and computer program products for a multi-server fractional subdomain DNS protocol. The disclosure addresses the problem of cost-effectively scaling the number of devices securely connected to the Internet. More specifically, some claims are directed to approaches for rapidly adding device subdomains while minimizing the deployment of digital security certificates by observing a fractional subdomain specification and translation protocol, which claims advance the technical fields related to cost-effectively scaling the number of devices securely connected to the Internet, as well as advancing peripheral technical fields. Some claims improve the functioning of multiple systems within the disclosed environments. | 02-19-2015 |
20150052258 | DIRECT MAP PROXY SYSTEM AND PROTOCOL - The present disclosure provides a detailed description of techniques used in methods, systems, and computer program products for a direct map proxy system and protocol. The claimed embodiments address the problem of flexibly and efficiently mapping to a large number of devices connected to the Internet using domain names. More specifically, some claims are directed to approaches for receiving from a user device a first domain name, mapping it to a different second domain name associated with a target device, and using the second domain name to initiate and establish a connection between the user device and target device, which claims advance the technical fields for addressing the problem of flexibly and efficiently mapping to a large number of devices connected to the Internet using domain names, as well as advancing peripheral technical fields. | 02-19-2015 |
20150088982 | LOAD BALANCED INTER-DEVICE MESSAGING - The present disclosure provides a detailed description of techniques used in methods, systems, and computer program products for using multiple connection URLs to enable load balanced inter-device messaging. The claimed embodiments address the problem of cost-effectively scaling the communications with an increasing number of devices connected to the Internet. More specifically, the claimed embodiments are directed to approaches for registering a listener device (e.g., mobile phone or handset) to receive messages from one or more notification devices (e.g., web camera), selecting a notification server from multiple servers to receive each notification message (e.g., using multiple URLs) and forward the message (e.g., through a push service) to the listener device. The selection of the notification server can be based on load balancing the multiple servers. | 03-26-2015 |
20150113172 | DEPLOYING AND MANAGING NETWORKED DEVICES - A method, system, and computer program product for network-connected devices. | 04-23-2015 |
20160087933 | TECHNIQUES FOR THE DEPLOYMENT AND MANAGEMENT OF NETWORK CONNECTED DEVICES - A method, system, and computer program product for Internet of Things (IoT) network-connected devices. Embodiments include methods and systems for registering one or more listener devices (e.g., mobile phones or tablets, etc.) to receive messages from one or more notification devices (e.g., web cameras, etc.). A notification server is selected from among multiple notification servers to receive notification messages from the notification devices and then to forward (e.g., through a push service, etc.) portions of or variations of the notification messages to the listener devices. In some embodiments, the selection of the notification server is based on load balancing between the multiple notification servers and/or push servers. In some embodiments, the selection of a notification server and/or push server is based on a provisioning file. | 03-24-2016 |
