SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRANSFERRING A CLIENT CONNECTION

Abstract: in a system with a plurality of servers serving one or more clients, situations may arise in which a client has a connection to a first server which is providing a service to the client, and in which it would be advantageous to transfer the connection to a second server, in a manner that does not require the re-establishing of the connection or the making of a renewed request, by the client, for the service. as such, a system and method for transferring a client connection from one server to another server are provided.
