  • Publication number: 20060089965
    Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for dynamically linking a content server to one or more application servers can include updating a routing configuration for the content server by automatically cataloging host application servers for an application serviced by the content server. Specifically, the updating step can include determining each host application server for portions of the application; and, adding each determined host application server to a list of application servers fronted by the content server. Moreover, the determining step can include determining each host application server for each target of each module of the application. Finally, the method further can include automatically cataloging host application server clusters for the application serviced by the content server.
