Abstract:
1. A method for routing application traffic, comprising: sending a first message from a first client-side application stored on a memory to a first client-side routing node; routing, by the first client-side routing node, the first message to a first system manager using a first address associated with the first system manager; providing by a first client-side arbiter stored on a memory a second address associated with a second system manager to the first client-side routing node; sending a second message from the first client-side application to the first client-side routing node; querying at least one of the first and second system managers by the first client-side arbiter, wherein the determination by the first client-side arbiter that the second system manager has replaced the first system manager is made in response to a result of querying the at least one of the first and second system managers; and routing, by the first client-side routing node, the second message to the second system manager using the second address.
