Abstract

The subject matter of this specification can be implemented in, among other things, a method that includes establishing, by a host server running an application, a connection to a client device; obtaining, based on an identifier of the client device, a profile of the client device comprising an identifier of a local device that was associated with the client device during a prior connection of the client device to the host server; and causing, based on the identifier of the local device, a driver for the local device to be available for execution on the host server, wherein the driver for the local device is to convert data between a data format accessible to the application and a data format accessible to the local device.
