System and method of load balancing by offloading redundant queries to client devices

A system for offloading redundant queries for load balancing, the system comprising:

• a client device including:
• an electronic memory, and
• a processor configured to:
• receive, from a load balancing node, a listing of client services hosted by a plurality of servers remotely coupled to the load balancing node,
• store the listing of client services in the electronic memory,
• identify at least one of the client services to be transmitted to the client device,
• access the listing of client services in the electronic memory and determine if at least one of the plurality of servers is hosting the identified client service to be transmitted to the client device,
• in response to determining that the at least one of the plurality of servers is hosting the identified client service, establish a connection between the client device and the at least one server hosting the identified client service, otherwise sending a request to the load balancer and receiving server information of at least another server that can host the identified client service, and
• request the identified client service to be transmitted from the at least one server or the at least another server to the client device.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions for offloading redundant queries for load balancing, including instructions for:

• receiving, from a load balancing node, a listing of client services hosted by a plurality of servers remotely coupled to the load balancing node;
• storing the listing of client services in electronic memory of a client device;
• identifying at least one of the client services to be transmitted to the client device;
• accessing the listing of client services in the electronic memory and determining if at least one of the plurality of servers is hosting the identified client service to be transmitted to the client device;
• in response to determining that the at least one of the plurality of servers is hosting the identified client service, establishing a connection between the client device and the at least one server hosting the identified client service, otherwise sending a request to the load balancer and receiving server information of at least another server that can host the identified client service;
• and
• transmitting the identified client service from the at least one server or the at least another server to the client device.
