Abstract

A web server includes a communication unit for receiving or transmitting a message corresponding to the request message which has been processed as a WebSocket message from or to at least one of clients and WAS. A processor, after finishing a WebSocket upgrade, (a) instructs the communication unit to send, to a specific worker thread of the WAS via predetermined internal protocol, the request message which has been processed as the WebSocket message by using a specific connection among a plurality of connections established by a reverse connection scheme for interaction between the web server and the WAS; and (b) receives the response message corresponding to the request message from the specific worker thread via the internal protocol by using the specific connection. The reverse connection scheme establishes at least one connection between the web server and the WAS by the WAS sending a request to the web server.
