Abstract
A connection management system for a data service system that is accessible through a plurality of access requests includes a request classifier that classifies each of the access requests as either a persistent connection request or a non-persistent connection request based on a predetermined classification policy. The connection management system also includes a persistent connection request processor that allows a connection established for a persistent connection request from a first remote user terminal to remain open after the request is processed by the data service system. A non-persistent connection request processor is also included in the connection management system that causes a connection established for a non-persistent connection request from a second remote user terminal to be closed after the non-persistent connection request is processed by the data service system. In addition, a method of managing connections of the data service system is also described.
