<p>In the method of the invention, messages received by a message distributor are distributed to destination nodes. The method includes an optional procedure for obtaining a congestion metric of each of the at least two destination nodes, and a procedure for obtaining a latency metric of each of at least two destination nodes. The latency metric of a destination node includes a measure of a transmission time between the message distributor and the destination node. The method further includes a procedure for computing destination weights of each of the at least two destination nodes by taking into account the congestion metric, if obtained, and the latency metric of each of the at least two destination nodes; and a procedure for selecting as a destination for a received message one of the at least two destination nodes, depending at least on the destination weights.</p> |
