Abstract
A control server of an apparatus in one example receives an offer message from a resource server. The offer message indicates an availability of the resource server to handle one or more tasks for the control server. The control server employs the offer message to determine whether to add an indication of the resource server to a resource server mapping table that comprises indications of a plurality of available resource servers. The resource server mapping table is employable to determine a selected resource server of the plurality of available resource servers to use for a task of the one or more tasks.
