Abstract :
People spend a lot of time navigating on the web. When moving from one computer device to another, it would be useful to have access to the navigation data produced in the previous web session. In this article, a synchronization service of navigation data, called Browserver, is presented. It is responsible for keeping user navigation information (tabs, history, forms, cookies, etc.) so that it can be recovered from any device connected to the Internet. Finally, Browserver performance is compared to a similar service, according to hardware and network consumption metrics.
