Can somebody please explain me how to handle multiple requests for a
servlet considering the following scenario,
1. Consider that the web server recieves more requests and the maximum number of threads(configured in xml) running in the server has crossed the limit.
2. consider that each
thread will take more than 5 minutes to complete the process.
In the above scenario, whether all other clients requesting the server should wait? or is there way to avoid this apart from clustering and load balancing?
