ABSTRACT:
A method is described for optimizing the user-experienced availability and responsiveness of a replicated authentication system via the use of client-side authentication routing logic. Particular techniques are described for maximizing the authentication system availability and additionally either 1) bounding the user-experienced authentication latency, or 2) minimizing the user-experienced authentication latency.
