I have been having some trouble identifying whether or not there is a name for the following common pattern:
A thing which has at minimum the following lifecycle:
- comes online
- accepts requests for an indefinite period of time
- receives a signal to stop accepting new requests, but finish processing any currently processing requests
- goes offline
I mean this as opposed to something with a terminal lifecycle, something like:
- comes online
- does some work on one request
- goes offline
The most concrete example of this pattern in my mind is a web server which is subject to a load balancer, but am having trouble finding some general literature on the subject.
