Abstract

A method for managing connections using a dummy HTTP, the method comprising: upon receiving an HTTP request from a client, establishing, by a Web server, a connection to a Web application server to transmit the HTTP request to the Web application server over the connection; transmitting, by the Web server, an HTTP response received from the Web application server to the client; and continuing, by the Web server, the connection by exchanging a dummy HTTP request and a dummy HTTP response with the Web application server when a count of a duration time of the connection reaches a preset survival check time.
