1. A connection management system for a data service system that is accessible through a plurality of access requests, comprising:

  • (A) a request classifier that classifies each of the access requests as either a persistent connection request or a non-persistent connection request based on a predetermined classification policy, wherein the request classifier is configured to classify an access request received from a user terminal based upon a service class assigned to the user terminal;

    (B) a persistent connection request processor that allows a connection established for a persistent connection request to remain open after the request is processed by the data service system;

    (C) a non-persistent connection request processor that causes a connection established for a non-persistent connection request to be closed after the request is processed by the data service system.
