Abstract
Systems and methods for management of a network connection without heartbeat messages are disclosed. One embodiment of a distributed proxy system performs a method for the communication of state between a client and a server in a distributed content delivery network using a state map. The state map sets a predicted communication correspondence frequency and thus eliminates the use or need of heart beat messages to manage session state and/or convey health status of system components.
