Common use of Backend State Synchronisation Clause in Contracts

Backend State Synchronisation. Narrative A media service provider realised an augmented reality game in a smart city environment where gaming instances can be deployed across the entire city due to their rather low-compute requirements. In order to keep certain states in each instance synchronised across the city the service provider uses HTTP to request state updates from the backend. Using a clocked synchronisation interval of three seconds all gaming instances across the city issue an HTTP request at roughly the same time which are served by a single HTTP response to all clients in a multicast fashion. Stakeholders  Media service providers that chose HTTP as the state synchronisation protocol and a clocked realisation of the service.  Platform provider that allows to serve outstanding HTTP responses in a multicast fashion to all clients.  Infrastructure providers whose networks are built on an SDN switching fabric.
