Abstract: A set of servers connect to a group of voicemail systems and to a group of client access points. The set of servers may receive a request to perform a transaction relating to a voicemail mailbox of a particular voicemail system; cause the transaction to be performed with regard to the voicemail mailbox of the particular voicemail system; and receive a notification that the transaction was performed with regard to the voicemail mailbox of the particular voicemail system. The set of servers may perform synchronization processes to synchronize the client access points with regard to the transaction that was performed with regard to the voicemail mailbox of the particular voicemail system, where each of the client access points contains a same view of the voicemail mailbox as a result of the synchronization processes.

Abstract: A network device may include a memory to store an aggregate database. The aggregate database may store aggregate voicemail message information, the aggregate voicemail message information including voicemail message information associated with a first device number and voicemail message information associated with a second device number. The network device may include a receiver to receive, over a network, updated voicemail message information associated with the first device number and stored in a first database different from the aggregate database, and to receive, over the network, updated voicemail message information associated with the second device number and stored in a second database different from the first database and the aggregate database.

Abstract: A system may include a load balancer that includes a receiver configured to receive a first notification of voicemail message information associated with a voicemail mailbox. The system may also include a group of servers and each of the group of servers may include a receiver and a transmitter. The receiver may be configured to receive the first notification of the voicemail message information from the load balancer, and the transmitter may be configured to send a second notification of the voicemail message information to a communication device associated with the voicemail mailbox, wherein the second notification causes the communication device to determine whether to request a list of voicemail messages. The load balancer may also include a processor to select a first one of the plurality of servers and a transmitter to send the first notification to the first one of the plurality of servers.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for supplying calling party information to a called party via a network comprising a telephone network, a data network, and at least one gateway device. The gateway device is connected to both the telephone network and the data network. The gateway device receives, via the telephone network, signaling information representing a telephone call from the calling party to the called party. The signaling information includes called party information. Calling party information is obtained based on the signaling information. The calling party information is provided to the called party via the data network.
