Abstract

Various embodiments of systems and methods for communicating with a plurality of remote systems are described herein. A remote data query is sent from a central data requesting system to remote systems. A query result is received asynchronously from at least one of the remote systems. The remote systems may include data pools which are independent of each other. In one embodiment, the remote systems include a responsive remote system and an unresponsive remote system, and the query result is received from the responsive remote system. In one embodiment, a predetermined timeout period is set at the central data requesting system and the query result obtained after the pre-determined timeout period is ignored by the central data requesting system.
