Load Balancing

Stampede's solutions provide an Enterprise Application Server Dispatch function which uses load balancing logic to dispatch requests to back-end servers by routing the request to an application pool of servers in a balanced fashion, thus optimizing the utilization of application servers.  Load balancing can be implemented via two different methods:

  1. Fewest Pending Responses, which dispatches requests to the application server that is most caught up processing its workload.
  2. Least Connections, which dispatches transactions to the application server with the fewest number of connections.

This Load Balancing feature can be utilized for all HTTP applications, as well as most traditional TCP client server applications.

"With millions of Lotus Notes users depending on the mainframe to distribute time-critical information, we are pleased that Stampede's TurboGold software is now available to the growing set of IBM customers who are consolidating mail and messaging servers on zSeries, helping to make their operations even more efficient."
