Adaptive application server request balancing

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations for adaptive application server request balancing:

• receiving an application request for a first application at a first application server and from a load balancer;
• in response to determining that a complexity value for the application request is greater than a complexity value threshold and that an occupancy value for the first application server is greater than an occupancy value threshold, providing the application request to a global task queue that is accessible by the first application server and other application servers;
• receiving a notification from a second application server of a completion of the application request by the second application server;
• retrieving, from a global results queue, a completion result of the completion of the application request by the second application server;
• and
• providing the completion result to the first application in response to the application request.

A system, comprising:

• a computing device;
• and
• a computer-readable storage device coupled to the computing device and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations for adaptive application server request balancing, the operations comprising:
• receiving an application request for a first application at a first application server and from a load balancer;
• in response to determining that a complexity value for the application request is greater than a complexity value threshold and that an occupancy value for the first application server is greater than an occupancy value threshold, providing the application request to a global task queue that is accessible by the first application server and other application servers;
• receiving a notification from a second application server of a completion of the application request by the second application server;
• retrieving, from a global results queue, a completion result of the completion of the application request by the second application server;
• and
• providing the completion result to the first application in response to the application request.
