SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR APPLICATION SPECIFIC LOAD BALANCING

摘要

The present application is directed towards systems and methods for application specific load-balancing for web servers. A device intermediary to a plurality of clients and a plurality of services executing on a plurality of servers, may receive a request from a client for an application. The device may identify an identifier for the application from a table comprising a list of applications and a corresponding identifier assigned to each application. In an embodiment, the device may establish one or more monitors to monitor each service to determine applications available on each service. In an embodiment, the device may determine that one or more services of the plurality of services provides the application and select a service from the one or more services to forward the request. The device may forward the request to the selected service.
