1. A work management computer system comprisinga) a pool of physical datastores which is associated with a set of logical datastore partitions;
- andb) a pool of physical servers associated with a set of logical server partitions;
wherein a consumer is associated with a logical datastore partition and with a logical server partition based on a consumer identifier;
wherein a distributor, comprising a computer programmed to perform as a router, receives a work request comprising a consumer identifier;
wherein said distributor determines which specific logical datastore partition and which specific logical server partition said request is associated with;
wherein said distributor further determines a specific physical server wherein said specific logical server partition resides after determining which specific logical server partition said request is associated with;
wherein said distributor further determines a specific physical datastore wherein said specific logical datastore partition resides after determining which specific logical datastore partition said request is associated with;
wherein said work management system is designed to permit said specific logical server partition to be moved to a different physical server independent of any other logical server partitions which are associated with a different subset of consumer identifiers residing on said specific physical server; and
wherein said work management system is designed to permit said specific logical datastore partition to be moved to a different physical datastore independent of any other logical datastore partitions which are associated with a different subset of consumer identifiers residing on said specific physical datastore.

Abstract
A system is disclosed for facilitating relationship-centric authorization of transactions in a manner which provides optimum scalability and availability by logically partitioning key servers in conjunction with partitioning a resource associated with a group of consumers across the set of logical servers associated therewith.

1. A work management computer system comprising
a) a pool of physical datastores which is associated with a set of logical datastore partitions; - and
b) a pool of physical servers associated with a set of logical server partitions; wherein a consumer is associated with a logical datastore partition and with a logical server partition based on a consumer identifier; wherein a distributor, comprising a computer programmed to perform as a router, receives a work request comprising a consumer identifier; wherein said distributor determines which specific logical datastore partition and which specific logical server partition said request is associated with; wherein said distributor further determines a specific physical server wherein said specific logical server partition resides after determining which specific logical server partition said request is associated with; wherein said distributor further determines a specific physical datastore wherein said specific logical datastore partition resides after determining which specific logical datastore partition said request is associated with; wherein said work management system is designed to permit said specific logical server partition to be moved to a different physical server independent of any other logical server partitions which are associated with a different subset of consumer identifiers residing on said specific physical server; and wherein said work management system is designed to permit said specific logical datastore partition to be moved to a different physical datastore independent of any other logical datastore partitions which are associated with a different subset of consumer identifiers residing on said specific physical datastore. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4)
