Server-stateless execution of an application in customizable runtime environment
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11875196B1) discloses a computer-readable medium with instructions for server-stateless execution of an application in a customizable runtime environment. The operations include receiving a request from a client device, sending a state portion of the application to the client device, instantiating logic portions of the application, executing the logic portion using the state portion, and updating the state portion. The patent also covers methods for determining the number of logic portion instances based on scalability requirements and receiving an enclosed state from the client device.
Furthermore, the patent extends to a client device with memory devices and processors configured to execute operations for server-stateless execution of an application. These operations involve generating a request to initiate execution, sending the request to the server, receiving the application state, sending a subset of the state portion related to the logic portion, receiving an updated state subset, and updating the state portion. The client device can interact with the application through a web browser or native application, with user interface elements for interaction with the logic portion. The patent emphasizes the server-stateless execution of applications in a customizable runtime environment, enhancing flexibility and scalability in application deployment and execution.
