Synchronization of Data in a Distributed Computing Environment
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for data synchronization across multiple target destinations in a computer network, the method comprising:
- acquiring information about the target destinations, wherein;
the target destinations comprises at least one of;
a network account in the computer network;
ora target device coupled to the computer network or associated with the network account; and
the acquired information includes identification information associated with the target destinations;
receiving, at a user device, data from a data source;
filtering the received data based on information included in the received data and in the identification information;
identifying, based on the filtering, a selected target destination for receiving the filtered data; and
transmitting the filtered data to the identified selected target destination.

Abstract
A method for data synchronization across multiple target destinations in a computer network includes acquiring information about the target destinations, wherein: the target destinations comprises at least one of a network account in the computer network, or a target device coupled to the computer network or associated with the network account; and the acquired information includes identification information associated with the target destinations. The method may also include receiving, at a user device, data from a data source; filtering the received data based on information included in the received data and in the identification information; identifying, based on the filtering, a selected target destination for receiving the filtered data; and transmitting the filtered data to the identified selected target destination.
