Abstract

The present subject matter discloses a system and a method for managing a connection between a client and an application within a server in a network. In one implementation, the method includes receiving a connection request from the client. The method further includes associating with a worker thread, a unique identifier (UID) that uniquely identifies the received connection request. Further, the method involves, communicating a message that includes client data associated with the connection request to the application by the worker thread. The method also includes obtaining, by a reverse worker thread, a reply message associated with the UID from the application. The reverse worker thread is configured to communicate the reply message to the client.
