Remote application connection sharing

摘要

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for sharing a connection to a remote-based application running on a server. A plurality of client-side browser instantiations can be associated with the remote-based application, such as by running instantiations of the remote application locally on respective client machines. The client-side browser instantiations are able to write to and read from a local global storage regarding the remote-based application, and are notified of a state change to the local global storage, without polling. A first browser instantiation registers as a primary instantiation with the local global storage, and connects to the server for the remote-based application. One or more second browser instantiations registered with the local global storage, along with the primary browser instantiation, can send and receive updates for the remote-based application through the primary browser instantiation, utilizing state change notifications.

主权项

1. A computer-based method, comprising:
registering a first browser instantiation of a browser as a primary instantiation with a local global storage, where the primary instantiation connects to a server; writing an update to the local global storage, the update based upon data received from the server via the first browser instantiation and directed to a second browser instantiation of the browser, the second browser instantiation not directly connected to the server; and automatically notifying the second browser instantiation of a change to a state of the local global storage responsive to determining a change to a key-value pair comprised in a plurality of key-value pairs comprised in the local global storage, the change to the key-value pair based upon the update.
