Apparatus, method and system for improving application performance across a communications network
First Claim
1. A method for dynamically replicating one or more parent nodes on a network in response to a user request, comprising:
- receiving a user request by a policy manager, said user request for replicating the parent node;
transmitting the user request to an event module by the policy manager for replicating the parent node;
transmitting the user request to a data consistency module, wherein the data consistency module maintains integrity of the data on the parent node;
initiating replication of software on the parent node to a new child node;
communicating with a resource management module to ensure proper utilization of network resources; and
transmitting a routing request to a request routing module for appropriately balancing network load, wherein the request routing module provides optimal routing based on the network resources.

Abstract
An apparatus, method and system to enable dynamic replication of Web servers across a wide area in response to access patterns by Web clients as well as in response to customer requests. The method for dynamically replicating one or more parent nodes on a network in response to a user request by a policy manager. The policy manager transmits the user request to an event module. The event module transmits the user request to a data consistency module, wherein the data consistency module maintains integrity of the data on the parent node. The event system communicates with a resource management module to ensure proper utilization of network resources, and transmits the routing request to a request routing module for appropriately balancing the network load. The request routing module is capable of providing optimal routing based on the network resources.

7. A method of initiating a replication event on a computer network, comprising:
-
obtaining a user request message;
determining the fixed resource requirements for all existing applications on the network;
parsing the user request message;
comparing the user request to current setting for the user;
determining appropriate action in response to the user request; and
acting upon user request message. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
