Abstract

In one aspect of the invention is a method for locking in all client requests having the same session I.D. to the same server to facilitate secure e-commerce transactions. A client's session I.D. is mapped to an SSL context between a dispatcher and a server such that all subsequent client requests having the same session I.D. are forwarded to the same server.
