An information management method includes invoking a client environment hosted on a client machine. The client environment is registered with a discovery machine coupled to the client machine by a network. A server machine coupled to the network registers with the discovery machine. A host environment of the client environment on the server machine registers with the discovery machine upon an indication that the server machine has a communication for the client environment. A direct link is established between the client machine and the server machine and the communication is delivered from the server machine to the client machine.
