A session manager is used to manage selection of a remote host for a session in response to a request that is associated with a user. The session manager uses resource information obtained from remote hosts in advance of the request to determine which remote host to associate with a session for a client. Each remote host performs a resource calculation (configurable) to determine how many processes/sessions it can further accommodate. The remote host sends the results of the resource calculation and other determined resource information to the session manager. The session manager provides the determined remote host to a client device. The client device then directly connects to the determined remote host. A process may be automatically started on the remote host for the client as the user. The session manager may also store and receive information for active and historical processes, remote host status, and remote host configuration.

Service-based load-balancing management of processes on remote hosts

Customizations, made at various levels in the customization channel, are saved as separate sets of customization deltas that are applied to a base computing system in order to generate a given solution. In a multi-tenant environment, groups of tenants access different solutions or customization deltas. The tenants are automatically grouped, based upon the solution or customization deltas that they access, and the deltas for those customizations are applied to the base system at runtime, for each group.
