Abstract

In an approach for connecting an access point in a client region to an access point within a cluster of server regions for a transaction process, a processor receives a connect request to a cluster of server regions sharing a network end point from a client region. A processor reroutes the connect request by a connection balancing mechanism to a network end point corresponding to a server region within the cluster of server regions. A processor transmits connection information to the client region, wherein the connection information allows the client region to connect to the server region within the cluster of server regions. A processor connects the server region within the cluster of server regions to the client region.
