Accordingly, a specialized verification process may be initiated to query the database to verify the receipt of a message has been acknowledged by various components within the system. In addition, the verification process may automatically retry the distribution the messages to ensure particular downstream components have received the message. Accordingly, the system alleviates the need to manual re-crawl various message source to ensure the end-to-end distribution of such messages.

  • Publication number: 20100262678
    Abstract: Architecture for providing easy and convenient configuration of a single-purpose application (SPA). A web-based SPA is retained on a client device for viewing specific information provided from a web server. A web-based identification component obtains an identity associated with the client device or device user. A website user interface enables the user to enter configuration information of the SPA. Subsequently, the configured SPA receives the requested information from the web server based on the identity. A storage component stores the configuration information on a remote web server and/or the client device for backup purposes. A communications component refreshes the requested information to provide updated information to the user via the SPA.
