Abstract:
1. A method of associating incoming requests and outgoing requests in a multi-tier computerized environment, the multi-tier computerized environment comprises a first tier and a second tier, comprising: a. monitoring requests of the first tier, comprising: b. logging, in a thread-to-thread table, a communication channel ID, a thread ID and a time stamp related to the time each of the detected requests was sent or received; c. identifying, in the data stored in the thread-to-thread table, requests in which the first thread and second thread transmit or receive via a common communication channel based on the communication channel ID; and d. associating the outgoing requests of the first tier to the incoming requests of the first tier based on said identifying; wherein the first thread is different from the second thread; detecting an incoming request received via a third communication channel at the second tier; associating the incoming request received via a third communication channel at the second tier with the outgoing request from the first tier; wherein said associating is performed by generating a first ad-hoc ID for outgoing requests at the first tier and generating a second ad-hoc ID for incoming requests at the second tier, wherein the first tier generates the first ad-hoc ID independently from the second tier, said first ad-hoc ID is not transmitted to the second tier and is not part of the outgoing request when handled by the first tier, wherein the first ad-hoc ID and the second ad-hoc ID are the same.
