Abstract: A computer-implemented method, comprising using a message application processor, programmatically receiving a first request to determine a fee associated with sending a digital electronic message using any one of a plurality of different communication channels, the request comprising at least a product identifier and an organization identifier; in response to the request, the message application processor executing: extracting the product identifier and the organization identifier from the message; based on the organization identifier, retrieving from digital data storage one or more configuration values that are associated with an organization corresponding to the organization identifier; the message application processor obtaining a time value corresponding to a then-current time; the message application processor querying the digital data storage, based on the product identifier and the time value, an applicable pricing for the message and corresponding to the product identifier and the time value; the mes

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, comprising using a message application processor, receiving a first request from a separate application server computer executing a particular computer program application to create and cause sending a digital electronic message, the request comprising a template version identifier, the template version identifier being associated in a database with a previously defined template that associates a locale value and a platform value, the request specifying a location value corresponding to a geographic location of a recipient of the message; in response to the request, the message application processor creating the message and assigning a status value to the message, the status value being associated with a first state of the message; the message application processor causing the message to transition to a second state; the message application processor performing a flow hook lookup to determine whether a flow definition is associated with the transition from the first state to the

Abstract: A distributed computer system implements a large-scale message processing system that can initiate, request sending, and monitor the transmission of messages using any of a plurality of different communication channels that are independent of the system. Users can digitally create and store one or more data policies that specify geographical regions, or groups of regions, in which data relating to message flows must reside. Data policies can be associated with or bound to workspace identifiers. When a node of the message processing system receives a client request to process a message, the node first accesses a global hash map storage layer from which data policies can be obtained and selects a region based upon a workspace identifier carried in the client request. Data policies can include definitions specifying controls on the transfer of personally identifiable information.

When a node of the message processing system receives a client request to process a message, the node first accesses a global hash map storage layer from which data policies can be obtained and selects a region based upon a workspace identifier carried in the client request. The node uses the selected region to forward the client request to service nodes within the specified region for further processing and includes a region identifier in the forwarded request.
