Abstract
Various implementations for session coupling in a distributed computing system are provided. In one implementation, a first server entity receives a transmission having an identifiable user context from a client entity. In response, the first server entity creates a first session that is related to the identifiable user context. A second server entity receives a transmission related to the first session from the first server entity. In response, the second server entity creates a second session that relates to the identifiable user context. The first and second sessions are coupled to create a common virtual session. The common virtual session is then bound to the identifiable user context so that the first and second server entities recognize that subsequent transmissions from the client entity relate to the common virtual session.
