US Patent 10009425 Synchronization of transactions utilizing multiple distributed cloud-based services

A SPOC server receives a request to initiate a transaction utilizing multiple separate distributed cloud based services located on separate datacenters, from an endpoint. The SPOC server generates a transaction identifier for the transaction. The SPOC server transmits the generated transaction identifier to the endpoint. Receipt of the generated transaction identifier directs the endpoint to call each one of the separate services, with the transaction identifier. Over time, the SPOC server receives a separate service completion notification with the generated transaction identifier from each one of the separate services. Each separate service completion notification indicates that the corresponding service has completed. Only in response to receiving a separate service completion notification from each one of the separate distributed cloud based services, the SPOC server transmits a transaction completion notification with the generated transaction identifier to the endpoint. The transaction completion notification indicates that the transaction is complete.
