System and method for automated construction of URL, cookie, and database query mapping
A method for constructing a URL, cookie, and database query mapping is disclosed. The method is employed within a content delivery system comprising a Web server, an application server and a database management system (DBMS), wherein the Web server is coupled for receiving a URL request destined for an original servlet in the Web server. The method comprises redirecting the URL request to a wrapper servlet, which includes statements for extracting the URL string and cookie information, and assigning a job identification system variable containing the URL string and cookie information to the redirected URL request. The redirected URL request is then forwarded to the original servlet in the form of an HttpServletRequest. The HttpServletRequest is then communicated to the application server, which issues at least one query destined for an original database connection API the DBMS. The at least one query includes the job identification system. The query is then redirected to a wrapper database connection API within the DBMS, which includes statements for recovering the URL string and cookie information from the at least one query and constructing a URL, cookie, and database query mapping.
