Abstract
In a method and system for monitoring the performance of servers across a network and for suggesting an appropriate server to a client requesting a service, a plurality of probes are placed in various clients in the network by a Broker-Performance Mechanism. The probes request that the servers perform various network functions and measure the response times of the servers in satisfying those requests. The Broker-Performance Mechanism retrieves, analyzes, and stores the response time data. The stored data can be made available to a user for system diagnostic purposes. In addition, when a particular client requests a particular service, the Broker-Performance Mechanism examines the analyzed data and determines which server is best suited, at that particular time, to provide the requested service to the requesting client.
