  • Arbitrating an appropriate back-end server to receive channels of a client session
    Patent number: 7945611
    Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for arbitrating an appropriate back-end server to receive channels of a client connection. Each front-end server in a server farm specifies a back-end server in the server farm that it deems appropriate for receiving channels of a client connection. Each specified back-end server is represented by an arbitration mechanism. A relevant set of potential back-end servers that can receive channels of a client connection is selected according to function configured to minimize performance impact. A load balancing service compares arbitration mechanisms for different back-end servers in the set of potential back-end servers to determine an appropriate back-end server for receiving channels of the client connection.

    Patent number: 7720971
    Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for arbitrating an appropriate back-end server to receive channels of a client connection. Each front-end server in a server farm specifies a back-end server in the server farm that it deems appropriate for receiving channels of a client connection. Each specified back-end server is represented by an arbitration order, for example, a universally unique identifier. A relevant set of potential back-end servers that can receive channels of a client connection is selected according to function configured to minimize performance impact. A load balancing service compares arbitration orders for different back-end servers in the set of potential back-end servers to determine an appropriate back-end server for receiving channels of the client connection.
