TRACKING DISCRETE ELEMENTS OF DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTIONS

摘要

Methods and systems for grouping two or more communications on a computer network into a transaction. One embodiment includes a method of tracking an asynchronous communication between two applications. The method includes receiving a first and third event record associated with a first and third application, wherein the first and third event records indicate the occurrence of an interaction between the first and third applications. The method may further include receiving a second event record from a second application. The second event record may be used by a managing server to group the first and third interactions as belonging to a common transaction.
