Abstract
Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for providing and using a connection management service. A connection management service can receive a connection request that requests a connection between a requestor and a distributed network. The connection management service can identify a connector to provide the connection between the requestor and the distributed network. The connection management service can provide, to the requestor, an object corresponding to the connector. The requestor can invoke the object to connect to the distributed network.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- generating, at a first server that comprises a processor, a connection request that requests a connector from a second server, wherein the connector comprises an object that creates a connection between the first server and a resource that operates on a distributed network;
- sending, by the first server and to the second server, the connection request;
- receiving, by the first server and from the second server, the connector;
- and
- connecting, by the first server and using the connector, to the resource that operates on the distributed network.
A system comprising:
- a first server comprising a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising
- generating a connection request that requests a connector from a second server, wherein the connector comprises an object that creates a connection between the first server and a resource that operates on a distributed network,
- sending, to the second server, the connection request,
- receiving, from the second server, the connector, and
- connecting, using the connector, to the resource that operates on the distributed network.
A computer storage medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- generating, at a first server, a connection request that requests a connector from a second server, wherein the connector comprises an object that creates a connection between the first server and a resource that operates on a distributed network;
- sending, to the second server, the connection request;
- receiving, from the second server, the connector;
- and
- connecting, using the connector, to the resource that operates on the distributed network.
