Adaptive load balancing between static and dynamic layers in J2EE applications

Web applications development using various technologies has become a standard procedure for shops and businesses. These web applications require distribution systems of web requests that allow and support the dynamism of these environments, to provide service availability and resource use, commonly heterogeneous. The design of appropriate load balancing strategies, taking into account the dynamic nature of the application servers, is essential if we obtain a high performance service. In this work we present the integration of a new load balancing policy in-between static and dynamic layers of a high throughput and high performance web application, this strategy gets the status report of each application server, used to later distribute web requests. Results that show how the strategy behaves are presented.
