Link optimization for callout request messages

Abstract:

A method and technique for link optimization for callout request messages includes monitoring one or more time-based parameters for each of a plurality of links between a communication pipe of a host system and one or more service systems. The links are used to send callout request messages between one or more applications running on the host system and the one or more service systems that process the callout request messages. The one or more time-based parameters are associated with different stages of callout request message processing by the communication pipe and the one or more service systems. The method also includes creating control data based on values of the one or more time-based parameters, creating the callout request messages to include the control data, and distributing the callout request messages to the one or more service systems via the links.
