Abstract
A management server may provide distribute flow control to a computer server system for providing online services to users. The computer server system includes a bus cluster, a plurality of caller systems, and a plurality of callee clusters. The management server may be configured to receive from the bus cluster health condition data of a callee cluster of the plurality of callee cluster in a first operation cycle; determine whether the callee cluster is slow or abnormal based on the health condition data in the first cycle; adjust a data flow limit in the bus cluster in a second cycle after the first cycle according to whether the callee cluster is slow or abnormal in the first cycle; and direct the bus cluster to control the data flow of the computer servers in the bus cluster in the second cycle according to the adjusted data flow limit.
