Abstract
An example system comprises a first access node in a first rack configured to engage in a connection with a client, and a second access node in a second rack. The first and second racks form a multi-rack distributed storage system. The system includes a distributed database including a first load indicator designating a first processing load of the first access node and a second load indicator designating a second processing load of the second access node. The distributed database is accessible to the first and second access nodes. The system further includes a connection relocation manager configured to relocate the connection with the client from the first access node to the second access node when the second processing load is less than the first processing load.
