Abstract

Some embodiments of the present invention include a method for controlling requests to be transmitted to a server computing system. The method generating, by a first requester, a request to be transmitted to a first server computing system, the first requester being part of a first group of requesters, each of the requesters in the first group of requesters is configured to access an indicator to determine whether the first server computing system is ready to receive its request, the indicator being set or reset at least based on a response received from the first server computing system, the indicator stored in a memory device associated with a second server computing system; and based on the indicator indicating that the first server computing system is not ready, delaying from transmitting, by the first requester, the request to the first server computing system.
