Methods, apparatuses, or computer program products provide for triggering component workflows within a multi-component system. An update to one or more component metadata records of a component metadata vector associated with a first component identifier may be received. The component metadata vector may include a plurality of records. Each record of the plurality of records may include a unique component metadata record identifier and a component metadata value. The component metadata vector associated with the first component identifier may be traversed after updating the one or more component metadata records. Based at least in part on detecting a component metadata condition associated with a component workflow trigger associated with the first component identifier, a first component workflow action of a first component workflow action series comprising a plurality of component workflow actions may be executed. Furthermore, a component workflow trigger notification may be transmitted to a first computing device.

A method for routing requests to a plurality of server clusters is disclosed. The method comprises establishing a first server cluster responding to requests concerning a first software via a first version of that software and to requests concerning a second software via a first version of that software, and a second server cluster responding to requests concerning the first software via a second version of that software and to requests concerning the second software via a second version of that software. A gateway router initially routes requests concerning the first and second software by default to the first server cluster. Upon receiving a request to change default routing of requests, a configuration of the gateway router is updated. Subsequent requests concerning the first software are routed to the second server cluster while subsequent request concerning the second software remain routed to the first server cluster.

Various systems and methods are provided in which a replication process is initiated between a primary site and a recovery site, each having plurality of gateway appliances. Replication loads are evaluated for each given gateway appliance of the plurality of gateway appliances. If a determination is made that at least one gateway appliance of the plurality of gateway appliances is not overloaded, the plurality of gateway appliances are sorted based on replication loads respectively associated with each gateway appliance, and a determination is made as to whether a relative difference in replication loads between a gateway appliance having a highest replication load and a gateway appliance having a lowest replication load exceeds a difference threshold to determine whether the replication workloads between the gateway appliances should be rebalanced.

Network equipment for processing a request from a terminal configured to be connected to a network to which the network equipment can be connected is described. The network equipment includes a receiver configured to receive, from the terminal, a message part of the processing request, a relay agent configured to provide a network identification information into the received message, and a load balancer configured to forward the received message to one of a plurality of processing units of the network equipment, depending on workload information associated with the processing units. The processing units are further configured to retrieve, based on the network identification information extracted from the received message, context information from a database unit shared between the processing units and to process the received message according to a state of the processing request, the processing request state being retrieved from the context information.

Disclosed are techniques and apparatuses that are configured to receive an indication that a web browsing session executing on an enterprise server needs additional information based on a request for additional information being sent to a client device. The request may include an identifier of the web browsing session and an identifier of an enterprise server that initiated the web browsing session. A globally unique identifier related to the web browsing session and an identifier of the enterprise server is stored in a common data store. The web browsing session may be paused when the web browsing session requests additional information from a client device. The client device may respond with the additional information. The system may provide the identifier of the enterprise server to a load balancing component so the identified web browsing session executing on the enterprise server may continue to be used.

A system and method for diameter agent load balancing. The method including: receiving a request from a sending diameter node; parsing at least one Attribute-Value Pair (AVP) from the request; determining a partition-identifier (partition-id) from the at least one AVP; determining a receiving diameter node, based on the partition-id; and sending the request to the receiving diameter node. The system including: a message module configured to receive a request from a sending diameter node; a parsing module configured to parse at least one Attribute-Value Pair (AVP) of the message from the request and determine a partition-id from the at least one AVP and a receiving diameter node, based on the partition-id; and a forwarding module configured to send the request to the receiving diameter node.

A method, computer readable medium, and computer network are provided for performing a synchronization operation. The method may comprise retrieving a list of network addresses of all standby servers in a standby server pool. The method may further include, using the list of network addresses, sending a health check query to each standby server in the standby server pool, and receiving response messages from the standby servers in the standby server pool. A positive response may indicate that the standby server is active in the standby server pool, and a negative response may indicate that the standby server is inactive in the standby server pool. The method may include, when any standby server returns the positive response, sending a message to an administrator. The method may further include, when every standby server returns the negative response, initiating a synchronization operation on a standby database connected to the standby servers.

A local area network includes plural content delivery network CDN receiver devices so as to enable player-equipped terminals in the local area network to receive audio and/or video contents. The disclosed method includes: obtaining capacity information from the CDN receiver devices; selecting, according to the capacity information, at least one CDN receiver device for a session of delivering an audio and/or video content to the player; when the session ends, the selected at least one CDN receiver device holds in place, during a predefined time duration, processing resources for a potential upcoming session; when another session starts before expiry of the predefined time duration, the processing resources hold in place are used for the new session. And when another session starts after expiry of the predefined time duration, reselection of at least one CDN receiver device, according to updated capacity information, is performed.
