Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012174499A2] Web request routers are used to route requests to content within a network. The web request routers run on general purpose computing devices that are configured to receive requests, parse the requests and route the requests to the appropriate destination. The web request routers may be configured to perform different routing methods and operations. For example, the web request routers may route requests based on: a type of network traffic (e.g. user/machine); application specific logic, URL patterns and/or other programmed logic. The web request routers may be configured to route the request based on a determined affinity (e.g. document, Uniform Resource Locator (URL), directory path, site collection) of the request. The web request routers may also be configured to perform QOS operations such as auditing, logging, metering, throttling network traffic, prohibiting network traffic and the like.
