A device may feature a set of containers from different domains, where the containers are restricted from interoperation due to domain restrictions. The device may provide a communication interface that enables simple communication between containers, such as string-based message-passing. While adequate for some uses, it may be difficult to utilize the communication interface in an ad-hoc manner for more complex uses, such as enabling a first container to observe state changes in an object within a second container. Instead, the device may receive a request by an observing container to create an observed container that is associated with a different domain, and to observe a data object within the observed container. Accordingly, the device may monitor the data object on behalf of the observing domain, and upon detecting an update, may transmit a notification of the update to the observing domain through the communication interface between the domain-restricted containers.
A method of coordinating domain-restricted containers on a device having a processor, the method comprising:
A memory device storing instructions that, when executed on a processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to coordinate domain-restricted containers, by:
A device that coordinates domain-restricted containers, comprising:
