14. A scalable hosting platform, comprising:
-
a first server of a first layer configured to serve one or more hosts wherein a designated server of the first server is associated with one host of the one or more hosts and responds to a request for the one host;
a monitoring module that monitors the first server and determine an overloaded condition of the first server wherein the monitoring module classifies the request;
a second server of a second layer that processes the request upon redirection of the request from the first layer; and
a manager that monitors the status of the second server, the manager identifying a group of the second server associated with a classification of the request and dynamically changing the association based on the status of the second server. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)

-
monitoring a status of a first hosting server;
redirecting a request for a host to a second hosting server upon determination that the status of the first hosting server is overloaded;
monitoring a status of the second hosting server;
assigning the redirected request to the second hosting server when the second hosting server has a classification consistent with a classification of the redirected request and the second hosting server is available; and
assigning the redirected request to a third hosting server when the second hosting server is overloaded, wherein a classification of the third hosting server is changed to have the classification of the redirected request. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30, 31)
