Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide concepts for handling incoming transaction requests to a transaction server based on a historical record of the server resources required to execute similar transactions in the past and the current capacity of the transaction server. Incoming transaction requests may be classified as heavy weight transactions or light weight transactions and the handling of the transaction requests may be based on said classification.

Abstract: Controlling a server latency response is presented. One example comprises monitoring, at a server, a number of requests from a client that cause a failure response. The method then comprises, responsive to the number of requests meeting a predetermined requirement, delaying processing of the requests from the client by a predetermined delay time.

Abstract: Embodiments for resolving outstanding affinities between a server cluster member and its clients are presented. Outstanding affinities between the server and the client may be identified in response to the server restarting. A reconnection request may then be generated and communicated to the client. Responsive to a first server of a server cluster restarting following a failure of a connection between a client and the first server, identifying, by an affinity analysis component, the outstanding affinity between the first server and the client. Responsive to identifying the outstanding affinity between the first server and the client, communicating, by a reconnection component, a reconnection request for reestablishing the connection between the first server and the client.

Abstract: A technique for synchronizing operations in a transaction processing system includes identifying, by a first recovery management connector (FRMC) in a first region, a failure of a first network connection having a first network type during synchronization operations with a partner region. The FRMC queries connections defined to the transaction processing system to identify a replacement network connection that is connected to the partner region using a second network type that is different than the first network type. The FRMC collects relevant data for an interrupted synchronization operation. The FRMC issues a command to link to a specific program in a FRMC in the partner region. The command includes the relevant data for the interrupted synchronization operation. A second recovery management connector of the first region communicates the command to and a response from the partner region via the replacement network connection in order to continue the interrupted synchronization operation.

Abstract: A computer program product comprises a computer useable medium. The computer useable medium has a computer readable program such that when the computer readable medium is executed on a computer, the computer is caused to configure an adapter such that the adapter is specific to a data source, provides a communication link to the data source, converts a format of the data source to a format native to a middleware system, and converts a format of metadata of the data source to a standard metadata format. Further, the computer is caused to configure an application interface component to convert an invocation of a function in the middleware system to an invocation of a function provided by an Enterprise Information System through the adapter, convert the data format of the middleware system to a format native to the Enterprise Information System accessed through the adapter, and maintain metadata describing a message format and a function provided by the adapter.
