1. A method comprising:
receiving a request for accessing a database;
selecting a band from a plurality of bands for the request based on a characteristic of the request, wherein a band is associated with a set of characteristics;
selecting a storage server for the band from a plurality of storage servers, wherein a metric associated with a performance of respective storage servers processing requests for the band is used to select the storage server;
determining whether the storage server can process requests from the band;
when the storage server can process requests from the band, causing processing of the request by the storage server to access the database; and
when the storage server cannot process requests from the band, setting a traffic limiting indication for the storage server to limit processing of requests for the band on the storage server, wherein the storage server is still able to process requests for other bands in the plurality of bands that do not have a traffic limiting indication set.
