Federated computing architectures allow for the interoperability of components and facilitates the exchange of data between varying systems and components. Endpoints, such as those utilizing Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) assume the same XMPP stream is used for both messaging and presence. Such systems are unable to accommodate a representational state transfer (“REST”) or, in other words, be “RESTful,” where the messaging server and presence server are distinct servers and may be on different domains. Provided here are systems described to split the protocols and enable an endpoint to appear to communicate with a single server while a protocol splitter routes and receives messages from distinct servers handling messaging and presence separately.
