A system and method of communication traffic management on a portable communication device having a computer processor and a network connection to a computer server for transmitting or receiving data with the processor over a network is provided. The method includes: identifying, by a traffic manager application running on the processor, a first application running on the processor and delivering first data to or from the server over the network; intercepting, by the traffic manager application, electronic traffic of the first data to or from the first application or to or from the server; and controlling, by the traffic manager application, a rate of delivery of the first data to or from the first application. The system includes the portable communication device and a nonvolatile storage device coupled to the processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to execute the steps of the method.

A method and system for a content broker, including a unified object index, where the content broker is coupled to the unified object index and receives, from a requesting entity, a request to perform an action on an object and the object is stored in the content repository. The method further including obtaining the object associated with the request from a content repository, determining, using the unified object index, a normalized object type associated with the object, obtaining a governance rule based on the normalized object type, and servicing the request using the governance rule.

An example method for delivery of push notifications includes receiving a push notification including a message and a destination, creating a send token, sending a push notification derived from the received push notification and the send token, and receiving push information concerning a processing of the sent push notification which is identified by the send token. An example system for delivering push notifications includes a server system having a processor, memory, and a network interface, where the memory stores program instructions including code segments for receiving a received push notification via the network interface. In this example, the program instructions further includes code segments for creating a send token, code segments for sending a sent push notification derived from the received push notification and the send token via the network interface, and code segments for receiving received push information concerning a processing of the sent push notification are provided.

A first communication, received from a first communication device operated by a first user, is parsed according to a policy to determine associated metadata comprising a first set of attributes. The policy dictates rules for use of the metadata. The first set of attributes is compared to attributes of a plurality of communication devices. Based on the comparing, at least one recipient communication device for the first communication is identified from the plurality of communication devices, wherein at least one of the first set of attributes matches at least one of the attributes of the plurality of communication devices. Based on the policy and the metadata, at least one of a feature available to the at least one identified recipient communication device and behavior of the at least one identified recipient communication device as perceived by a particular user associated with the at least one recipient communication device is determined.

An edge server receives a request from a client device for an action to be performed on a resource. The edge server determines whether data traffic is associated with one or more filters. When the edge server determines that there are filters associated with the type of data traffic, the edge server accesses a data structure storing properties of the request. For each request property in the data structure, the edge server applies a related filter to a value of the request property and determines where the value of the request property matches an expected value. In response to determining that one or more filters match, the edge server performs actions on the request. When the edge server performs the actions on the request, the edge server sends the request to the origin server.

There is provided mechanisms for enabling discovery of a collaborative proxy node in a 3GPP communication network. A method is performed by a network exposure function. The method comprises obtaining, from a content providing application function, a request for a cooperative performance enhancement service to be performed for application traffic between the application function and a user equipment, the cooperative performance enhancement service being performed by the cooperative performance enhancement node. The method comprises providing, upon having authorized the request, parameters as obtained in the request to a policy control function, thereby enabling discovery of the cooperative performance enhancement node.
