Abstract

A method, computer program product, and computer system for receiving, at a first node of a plurality of nodes in a distributed architecture, a request for at least one of a device and a service based upon, at least in part, an attribute of at least one of the device and the service. A query to resolve the request may be forwarded to a plurality of nodes in the distributed architecture. A probability of at least a portion of nodes of the plurality of nodes to resolve the query may be determined based upon, at least in part, a search routing mechanism. The request may be forwarded to a second node of at least the portion of nodes of the plurality of nodes based upon, at least in part, the second node having a higher probability to resolve the query than a third node of at least the portion of nodes of the plurality of nodes.
