Abstract
A method of entry distribution includes receiving requests by a chaining backend from an original client, forwarding requests from the chaining backend to a remote server, and returning results from the remote server to the original client. The chaining backend is a type of database plug-in that acts as a multiplexer with limited persistent storage capabilities.
