Abstract
An apparatus and method for improving event delivery efficiency in a polling adapter system is configured to poll an enterprise information system (EIS) to obtain a list of events occurring in the EIS. Each event may be associated with an object key. These events may then be allocated to multiple delivery lists wherein events associated with the same object key are allocated to the same delivery list. Multiple delivery threads may then be generated, with each delivery thread being associated with a delivery list. Each delivery thread is configured to retrieve, from the EIS, events listed in the delivery list associated with the thread and deliver the events to a client.
