1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at a multi-service hub having an operating system layer and an application layer, a text message originating from a cellular device, the text message compliant with a cellular message protocol;
determining, at the multi-service hub, whether a service application request extracted from the text message is treated as a local service application request and whether the service application request extracted from the text message is treated as a remote service application request;
responsive to the service application request being treated as the remote service application request, forwarding the remote service application request from the multi-service hub to a remote service application handler; and
responsive to the service application request being treated as the local service application request, processing the local service application request at the multi-service hub with a local service application at the application layer on the multi-service hub.

Abstract
Example embodiments provide a system and a method for a multi-service hub to respond to a service application request in a text message received from a. cellular device. The multi-service hub determines whether the service application request is a local service application request or remote service application request. A local service application request is processed with a local service application at the multi-service hub. A remote service application request is forwarded from the multi-service hub to a remote service application handler.
