Abstract
An application distributed amongst plurality of computing devices leverages an application programming interface that conforms to a representational state transfer architecture in order to provide resilient services to clients and adapt to a change in availability of devices. A proxy server routes communications between clients and servers, detects when a server becomes unavailable, and reroutes communications to a replacement server. A registration database on the proxy server records entries for clients, such that communications can be routed to active devices of a user.
