Method and system for sharing user configuration data between different computing sessions

A server comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to:
• receive a request from a client device to establish a first computing session for a first resource, wherein the first computing session hosts the first resource on at least one virtual machine (VM), and the first resource is associated with a user of the client device and provided by a first resource provider;
• generate a session transfer key for accessing a second resource provided by a second resource provider, the second resource associated with the user of the client device, wherein the second resource provider is different than the first resource provider;
• issue instructions, to the at least one VM that hosts the first resource, for establishing a second computing session to host the second resource, the instructions including a mapping of the session transfer key to a session identifier;
• and
• provide the instructions to the client device to establish the second computing session for the second resource without input from the user of the client device for the second resource, the establishment of the second computing session being between the at least one VM and the second resource provider and based on the mapping of the session transfer key to the session identifier.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• receive a request from a client device to establish a first computing session for a first resource, wherein the first computing session hosts the first resource on at least one virtual machine (VM), and the first resource is associated with a user of the client device and provided by a first resource provider;
• generate a session transfer key for accessing a second resource provided by a second resource provider, the second resource associated with the user of the client device, wherein the second resource provider is different than the first resource provider;
• issue instructions, to the at least one VM that hosts the first resource, for establishing a second computing session to host the second resource, the instructions including a mapping of the session transfer key to a session identifier;
• and
• provide the instructions to the client device to establish the second computing session for the second resource without input from the user of the client device for the second resource, the establishment of the second computing session being between the at least one VM and the second resource provider and based on the mapping of the session transfer key to the session identifier.
