Abstract:
A system, computer-implemented method and computer program performs heartbeat messaging for managing connections for data communications. In one example method, an indication of a problem associated with a connection for data communication in a computing system or network is received. In response to receiving the indication, a heartbeat message is sent over the connection. The method monitors for a heartbeat response to the heartbeat message within a predefined heartbeat time interval. If a heartbeat response is received within the predefined heartbeat time interval, the method determines that the indication of a problem associated with the connection is invalid. If a heartbeat response is not received within the predefined heartbeat time interval, the method determines that the indication of a problem associated with the connection is valid.

Claim (Index 1):
A server device for communicating data over at least one connection, the server device comprising a processing unit, a memory unit, and in input/output unit, and a connection manager within the memory unit, wherein the connection manager is configured to:\n receive an indication of a problem associated with a connection for data communication in a computing system or network; send a heartbeat message over the connection, in response to receiving the indication; monitor for a heartbeat response to the heartbeat message within a predefined heartbeat time interval; determine that the indication of a problem associated with the connection is invalid, based on a determination that a heartbeat response is received within the predefined heartbeat time interval, or determine that the indication of a problem associated with the connection is valid based on a determination that a heartbeat response is not received within the predefined heartbeat time interval.
