Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for dynamic rerouting of uniform resource identifiers having different syntaxes. A method includes a server receiving from a computing device a request that includes an initial uniform resource identifier (URI) that includes a product identifier. The request can be generated by the user scanning a product tag. Based on the identifier, the server finds two or more routing policy entries associated with the product. Each policy entry can include a regular expression that specifies syntax for parsing the initial URI and at least one variable. The server eliminates any routing policy having a context specification that does not match the request's context information and any routing policy entries having a regular expression that does not match the initial URI. The server composes a target URI based on a remaining routing policy entry and redirects the computing device to the target URI.
