Abstract

A system, apparatus, and method are directed towards managing communications with global applications through message handlers. The message is received by a first message handler that is local to the client device. The first message handler determines if the message is to be forwarded to a global application, and if so, forwards the message to a second message handler, which is configured to be local to the global application. The second message handler forwards the message and receives a response from the global application. The second message handler may then generate a session identifier that is useable to manage its session data for the message/response. The session identifier is sent to the first message handler in lieu of sending the session data, such that the two message handlers manage separately their own session data for the session. The session identifier is useable to relate the separately managed session data sets.
