Hi ,
I have an application that integrates with quite a large number of applications making calls usually with XML/HTTP using HttpClient. While none of these external applications are within my control , what would be the best way in which my application does not get performance bottlenecks if these integrating applications are down? The underlying solution I am looking for is that the
tomcat server where I am hosting my application should not run into overwhelmed requests or congestion because of these client calls. Is there a way to time out client calls ? All calls are synchronous and the current requirements do not facilitate the use of asynchronous design
Any inputs on this would be great!
Thanks
Prth
