Synchronization system, access server, client and method for application configuration information

Abstract

The invention provides a synchronizing system of application configuration information, an access server, clients and a synchronizing method of the application configuration information. Each client is used for sending the application configuration information to the access server when local application configuration is changed. The access server is used for attaching a timestamp to the application configuration information, and sending the application configuration information with the timestamp to a storage system to enable the application configuration information to be stored. When the application configuration information of one client needs to be updated, the application configuration information which is provided with the latest timestamp and stored in the storage system is sent to the client with the application configuration information needing to be updated. Therefore, a user can conveniently use the application configuration information on multiple terminals, the problem of roaming of the application configuration information of application software under the condition of multiple terminals and platforms is solved, and the objective that personal data can keep consistent all the time when the user conducts switch among the multiple terminals is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of Internet applications, and more specifically, to a synchronization system, access server, client and method for application configuration information. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of computer technology and network technology, the Internet (Internet) plays an increasingly important role in people's daily life, study and work. There are various system platforms on the Internet, such as Windows developed by Microsoft, iOS developed by Apple, Android developed as an open source operating system, webOS mainly developed for Palm smartphones, and BlackBerry developed. OS, Embedded, etc. [0003] These platforms often have some application software (apps) that need to share application configuration information with each other, such as address books, browser favorites, and the like. However, since the application software in each application platform usuall...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, because the application software in each application platform usually corresponds to different computers or terminals and cannot realize intercommunication, the application configuration information cannot be shared, which brings great inconvenience to users.

For example: if the user adds a new address book on the mobile phone, the address book on the user's computer cannot be updated accordingly because it cannot communicate with the mobile phone address book; The company computer communicates with each other and the collection cannot be updated; the user edits a word file on the company computer, but cannot continue to edit the word file on the subway home because the mobile phone cannot communicate with the company computer

[0004] In short, in the prior art, the application configuration information under multiple terminals cannot be roamed, so that users cannot use these application configuration information synchronously and freely on multiple terminals, which brings great inconvenience to users.
