GRANULAR APPLICATION SESSIONS TAGGING
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- at a server hosting a web application receiving, through a communication network from a client, a request message requesting a function of the web application to be performed during a session of the web application;
establishing a plurality of data connections to a database for accessing data stored in the database during the session, based on the function of the web application requested by the request message;
initializing a connection pool including the plurality of established data connections for a virtual machine to be executed at the server, the connection pool enabling the virtual machine to access data stored in the database during the session;
initiating execution of the virtual machine at the server in order to perform operations for the requested function based on data retrieved from the database via at least one of the plurality of data connections of the connection pool initialized for the virtual machine, wherein reference and logging information for the connection pool are stored in the database, the stored reference and logging information enabling the operations performed by the virtual machine to be traced for the session of the web application; and
sending a response message from the server through the communication network to the client, based on the operations performed by the virtual machine for the function requested by the client during the session of the web application.

Abstract
Systems and techniques are provided for identifying and tracing an individual session of a web application hosted at a server in a network communication system, based on a request message from a client requesting a function of the web application. Data stored in a database may be accessed by one or more virtual machines executing at the server via one or more data connections from a connection pool allocated to each of the virtual machines. Reference and logging information are stored for each virtual machine and corresponding connection pool, thereby enabling operations performed by each virtual machine for the requested function to be traced with a relatively high degree of granularity at each of various functional layers or tiers of the network communication system.

13. An article of manufacture, comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium and computer-executable instructions embodied in the medium that, if executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform functions, including functions to:
-
receive through a communication network from a client, a request message requesting a function of a web application hosted at the computing device to be performed during a session of the web application; establish a plurality of data connections to a database for accessing data stored in the database during the session, based on the function of the web application requested by the request message; initialize a connection pool including the plurality of established data connections for a virtual machine to be executed at the computing device, the connection pool enabling the virtual machine to access data stored in the database during the session; initiate execution of the virtual machine at the computing device in order to perform operations for the requested function based on data retrieved from the database via at least one of the plurality of data connections of the connection pool initialized for the virtual machine, wherein reference and logging information for the connection pool are stored in the database, the stored reference and logging information enabling the operations performed by the virtual machine to be traced for the session of the web application; and send a response message from the computing device through the communication network to the client, based on the operations performed by the virtual machine for the function requested by the client during the session of the web application. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
