1. A real time data exchange suspension method comprising the steps of:
- detecting a network outage condition affecting a real time data exchange;
selectively suspending but not terminating said real time data exchange; and
, resuming said real time data exchange when said network outage condition has been alleviated.

Abstract
A method, system and apparatus for the selective suspension of real time data exchanges for unreliable network connections. A selective real time data exchange suspension method can include detecting a network outage condition affecting a real time data exchange. As an example, the real time data exchange can be an exchange of speech data provided by a real time speech server over a data communications network. Subsequently, the real time data exchange can be selectively suspended but not terminated. Finally, the real time data exchange can resume when the network outage condition has been alleviated.

8. A real time data exchange system configured to selectively suspend a real time data exchange responsive to network outages, the system comprising:
-
a real time streaming engine configured for coupling to a communicative linkage over which real time data is received for processing in a real time data processing application;
a real time data processing application communicatively linked to said real time streaming engine; and
,prompting logic coupled to said real time data processing application and programmed to selectively choose to suspend or terminate an exchange of real time data responsive to receiving an alert for a network outage in said communicative linkage. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10)
