Exemplary implementations may: register a user of a messaging platform with an external network; associate the user with an identifier of the external network; configure an adapter to receive notifications from the identifier of the external network via a subscription; and receive, via the adapter at the messaging platform, the notifications addressed to the identifier of the external network based on the subscription.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for identifying a first network (associated with an edge server comprising a cache) and a second network available to a user equipment device. A request to access at least a portion of a media asset may be received from the user equipment device. In response to determining that the at least a portion of the media asset is not stored in the cache, a determination may be made whether the edge server, via the first network, or whether the user equipment device, via the second network, should obtain such at least a portion of the media asset. Such at least a portion of the media asset may be obtained using the selected server via the first network or using the selected user equipment device via the second network, caused to be stored at the cache, and generated for display at the user equipment device.
