Abstract

A system, computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a computer-implemented method for performing operations on target servers is presented. A request including an operation is received. A set of target servers associated with the operation is identified. The following request processing operations are performed until a predetermined termination condition has been satisfied: a target server in the set of target servers to which the request has not been issued and whose health metrics satisfy health criteria is identified, the request to perform the operation is issued to the target server, and when the request to perform the operation fails at the target server, health metrics for the target server are updated to indicate that the request to perform the operation failed at the target server and health check operation is scheduled to be performed with respect to the target server.
