Abstract

A first reverse proxy appliance of the plurality of reverse proxy appliances receives an incoming transaction. A machine logic determines that the incoming transaction cannot be directly processed by the first reverse proxy appliance based, at least in part, upon the current threshold level of the first reverse proxy appliance and the current transaction count of the first reverse proxy appliance. Responsive to the determination that the incoming transaction cannot be directly processed by the first reverse proxy appliance, a second reverse proxy appliance of the plurality of reverse proxy appliances and a third reverse proxy appliance of the plurality of reverse proxy appliances negotiate in order to determine that the third reverse proxy appliance will process the incoming transaction. Responsive to the negotiating, the incoming transaction is sent to the third reverse proxy appliance.
