OpenEdge™ NameServer Load Balancer

Asynchronous processing on the client further enhances application performance; clients can continue other processing while the server works on a request. Message queues ensure that all user requests are processed in a timely manner. And the ability for users to share memory resident application code reduces resource requirements on the server.

The OpenEdge Application Server's integrated NameServer Load Balancer streamlines client application requests and shields the application servers from specific deployment hardware assignments. The NameServer acts as a conduit to assign client application requests to an available OpenEdge Application Servers. Because the NameServer stores information for all Application Servers, an application server can be changed, moved, updated or deleted without affecting the client application. Users remain unaware of any changes to the server and can continue running their applications without disruption.

The NameServer also provides load-balancing capabilities for distributing application processing evenly throughout the network. Furthermore, the NameServer provides failover capabilities so that application requests to an Application Server will automatically be redirected to specified backup servers should the original server fail for any reason.
