The present invention discloses a system and a method for state management based on an instant messaging platform. The system comprises a client, a registration application server, a PS application server, and at least one third party server. The method includes the third party server searching its database according to client login information, obtaining the group information of the client and member information of the group, and returning the group information and the member information of the group to the client; then the client sending its current state and group information to the PS application server; and the PS application server, after receiving the current state and group information, sending states of other on-line members in the group to the client, and forwarding the current state of the client to other on-line members in the group. The present invention separates user management from state management in the instant messaging; its PS application server only performs state management; group and user information are stored specifically in other third party server(s), thereby not only decreasing the load of other parts of the system but also reducing the network overhead for realizing smooth operation. |
