A computer system and method is disclosed that includes a notification application that receives requests from clients for multicast messages over a point-to-point connection, provides a response to the client over the point-to-point connection regarding how the client should listen for the multicast messages, and improves multicast message delivery reliability by using point-to-point communication in conjunction with multicast. A computer system and method is disclosed that includes a notification application that serves as a central hub for data transport between clients or components on the network, and that routes messages to clients using multicast when available and unicast when multicast is not available.
