Patent ID: 8725848

Claim:
A method for processing data, comprising: connecting to an initial interface on a server, wherein the initial interface includes a group of initial interfaces, wherein the group of initial interfaces includes a first initial interface and a second initial interface; connecting to the second initial interface when the first initial interface is not accessible based on a time-out response, said time-out response varying based on a scenario; receiving an optimal interface, wherein the optimal interface includes a group of optimal interfaces, wherein the group of optimal interfaces includes a first optimal interface with a first counter value and a second optimal interface with a second counter value, wherein the first counter value is the number of jobs operating on the first optimal interface and the second counter value is the number of jobs on the second optimal interface; determining to connect to the second optimal interface when the first counter is greater than the second counter; disconnecting from the initial interface; and connecting to the first or second optimal interface on the server based on the determination.
