Distributing application traffic to servers based on dynamic service response time

Abstract:

Provided are methods and systems for distributing application traffic. A method for distributing application traffic may commence with relaying a first service request for a first service session from a service gateway to a server. The first service request may be received from a host and may be associated with a service request time. The method may further include receiving, from the server, a service response. The service response may be associated with a service response time. The method may continue with calculating a service processing time based on the service request time and the service response time and comparing the service processing time with an expected service processing time. The method may further include receiving, from the host, a second service request for a second service session. The method may continue with selectively relaying the second server request to the server based on the service processing time.
