US-12627745-B1 - Intelligent connection management and push- based updates for a cloud-based platform

Abstract

Techniques for managing the distribution of platform content updates to client devices includes a system that receives a connection request from a client device to access one or more resources of a software platform via a client application. The system establishes, in response to the request, a bidirectional network connection with the client device and retrieves one or more initial data streams from application programming interfaces (APIs) of the platform. The system transmits, over the bidirectional network connection, the data streams for presentation on a user interface of the client application. The system retrieves subsequent data streams corresponding to the initial data streams based on prior user interactions with the initial data streams.

Description

BACKGROUND Cloud network environments provide scalable computing resources to enable execution of a software platform architecture serving numerous users. For example, an online sportsbook platform may operate on the cloud environment and leverage these computing resources to process high volumes of real-time data (e.g., live sports event data, user bets, statistics, user social interactions, etc.) and deliver a quality experience to users engaging with the platform to bet on sports events, view progress of various events, and interact with other users. SUMMARY An embodiment presented herein discloses a system having one or more processors and a memory storing instructions. When executed on the one or more processors, the instructions cause the system to receive a first connection request from a client device to access one or more resources of a software platform via a client application executing on the client device. In response to the first connection request, a bidirectional network connection is established with the client device. The system retrieves one or more initial data streams from a plurality of application programming interfaces (APIs) of the software platform and transmits, to the client device over the bidirectional network connection, the initial one or more data streams for presentation on a user interface of the client application. The system receives one or more indications of user interactions with the at least one of the initial one or more data streams over the bidirectional network connection. A second connection request from the client device to access the one or more resources of the software platform is received via the client application. The system establishes, in response to the second connection request, a second network connection with the client device and retrieves subsequent data streams from the APIs. The subsequent data streams correspond to the initial one or more data streams. The one or more subsequent data streams is transmitted over the second network connection for presentation on the user interface. Another embodiment presented herein discloses a method. The method generally includes receiving a first connection request from a client device to access one or more resources of a software platform via a client application executing on the client device. In response to the first connection request, a bidirectional network connection is established with the client device. The method also includes retrieving one or more initial data streams from a plurality of application programming interfaces (APIs) of the software platform and transmits, to the client device over the bidirectional network connection, the initial one or more data streams for presentation on a user interface of the client application. One or more indications of user interactions the initial one or more data streams over the bidirectional network connection is received. A second connection request from the client device to access the one or more resources of the software platform is received via the client application In response to the second connection request, a second network connection with the client device and retrieves subsequent data streams from the APIs is established. The subsequent data streams correspond to the initial one or more data streams. The one or more subsequent data streams is transmitted over the second network connection for presentation on the user interface. Yet another embodiment presented herein discloses one or more machine-readable storage media storing instructions. When executed on one or more processors, the instructions cause the system to receive a first connection request from a client device to access one or more resources of a software platform via a client application executing on the client device. In response to the first connection request, a bidirectional network connection is established with the client device. The system retrieves one or more initial data streams from a plurality of application programming interfaces (APIs) of the software platform and transmits, to the client device over the bidirectional network connection, the initial one or more data streams for presentation on a user interface of the client application. The system receives one or more indications of user interactions with the at least one of the initial one or more data streams over the bidirectional network connection. A second connection request from the client device to access the one or more resources of the software platform is received via the client application. The system establishes, in response to the second connection request, a second network connection with the client device and retrieves subsequent data streams from the APIs. The subsequent data streams correspond to the initial one or more data streams. The one or more subsequent data streams is transmitted over the second network connection for presentation on the user interface. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The fo
