Abstract

Systems and methods for hosted application marketplaces in accordance with embodiments of the invention are described. In one embodiment, a hosted application marketplace server system includes a processor and a memory storing hosted application marketplace application, wherein the hosted application marketplace application directs the processor to obtain request data describing a request for hosted application data, wherein the request data includes user profile data and computing device capability data, identify a computing device based on the user profile data, determine compatible application data based on the request data, wherein the compatible application data identifies a set of applications that are compatible with the computing device based on the computing device capability data, generate hosted application data based on the compatible application data; and transmit the hosted application data in response to the obtained request data.

Claims

1. A hosted application marketplace server system, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory storing hosted application marketplace application;

wherein the hosted application marketplace application directs the processor to;

obtain request data describing a request for hosted application data, wherein the request data comprises user profile data and computing device capability data;

identify a computing device based on the user profile data;

determine compatible application data based on the request data, wherein the compatible application data identifies a set of applications that are compatible with the computing device based on the computing device capability data;

generate hosted application data based on the compatible application data; and

transmit the hosted application data in response to the obtained request data.
