Abstract
Example methods and systems for dynamic site selection in a global server load balancer (GSLB) environment are described. In one example, a computer system may obtain first health information from a first entity and second health information from a second entity. The first health information may be generated based on multiple first traffic flows between (a) multiple first client devices and (b) a first pool of backend servers. The second health information may be generated based on multiple second traffic flows between (a) multiple second client devices and (b) a second pool of backend servers. In response to receiving a request to access the service, the computer may select a selected site based on the first health information and/or second health information. A response may be generated and sent to cause a third client device to access the service by directing a third traffic flow towards the selected site.
