A user client (110, 120) enters a request by one of several addressing protocols (112, 120). The method of the invention uses a combination of analytical tools to act upon information contained in the request to determine which of the many distributed content data servers will provide the optimum connection for the user client. Criteria used to make the selection include the type of request, the shortest.</p> |
