Abstract

A method and system are disclosed. The method includes receiving a first request from a user at a dispatcher that corresponds to a first transaction. The method further includes creating at the dispatcher a unique identifier that is associated with the user. The unique identifier is based on data that is received from the user. A server is then assigned to the first request by adding an entry to a mapping table that is maintained by the dispatcher. The unique identifier is then associated with the assigned server.
