Abstract

A system, method and device for providing connection resiliency. The method including maintaining, by a first proxy, a TCP connection with a TCP client and a TCP connection with a TCP server through one or more TCP networks; maintaining information of both TCP connections by a forwarding component between the TCP networks and the first proxy; establishing, by the forwarding component, a new TCP connection with a second proxy for each of the TCP connections maintained by the first proxy; and forwarding data, to and from both the client and the server, to and from the second proxy without disconnection of the TCP connections of the TCP client and TCP server.
