1. A method, comprising:
- providing, by a service system, mobile device information of a mobile device to a computing device, wherein a user of the mobile device is to view or interact with the mobile device information using a client on the computing device with selectable actions to be performed with the mobile device information;
receiving from the computing device, by the service system, an indication of a selected action to be performed with the mobile device information;
determining, by the service system, whether the mobile device is reachable via a networking fabric; and
in response to receipt of the indication from the computing device;
when the mobile device is reachable via a networking fabric, directing the mobile device, by the service system, to perform the selected action, andwhen the mobile device is not reachable via the networking fabric, performing the selected action on behalf of the mobile device, by the service system;
wherein the mobile device, the service system, and the computing device are separate and distinct from each other.
