Abstract
Systems and methods for managing distribution of applications are provided herein. A host server can act as an intermediary between a communications device and an app store in order to manage distribution of applications to the communications device. Thus, the host server can receive from the communications device an app request for an application that resides at the app store. The host server can examine various catalog information and provide a package that includes the application to the communications device.
Claims20
A server, comprising:
- a memory, coupled to a processor, storing executable components, comprising:
- a receiving component configured to receive, from a communications device, an app request that requests an application download from an app store service;
- a catalog component configured to process catalog data that includes device information associated with the communications device and app information associated with the application, and determine a package for the communications device based on a result of processing the catalog data, wherein the package includes the application;
- an assembly component configured to construct the package;
- and
- a communications component configured to transmit the package to the communications device.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a server device including a processor to perform operations, comprising:
- receiving from a communications device an app request that requests an application download from an app store service;
- examining catalog information that includes device information associated with the communications device and app information associated with the application being requested;
- determining a package for the communications device in response to the examining the catalog information, wherein the package includes the application;
- assembling the package;
- and
- transmitting the package to the communications device.
A method for managing deployment of applications from an app store service, comprising:
- receiving, by a server device associated with the app store service, an app request from a communications device that requests an application from that app store service;
- based on a catalog that includes device information associated with the communications device and app information associated with the application being requested, determining a package for the communications device, wherein the package includes the application;
- assembling the package;
- and
- transmitting the package to the communications device.
