SYSTEMS AND TECHNIQUES FOR UTILIZING RESOURCE AWARE QUEUES AND/OR SERVICE SHARING IN A MULTI-SERVER ENVIRONMENT

摘要

Systems and techniques for utilizing resource aware queues and/or service sharing in a multi-server environment. Requests directed to an application server are received into one or more queues in front of the application server. An acknowledgement of the requests is provided in response to the requests being received by the one or more queues. Metadata associated with the requests is utilized to manage the one or more queues. The requests from the one or more queues are processed based on the metadata.
