The invention is that of systems and methods for controllerless and distributed network connections to servers on a network by remote clients seeking their services. The invention comprises a server database where servers within a server group identified by a groupname may post unique identifiers (UIDs) for retrieval by group clients configured with the groupname, which may query the server database for server connection information such as uptime, downtime, and congestion in order to select a server for a preferential connection based on an overall availability profile as determined by the group client. The methods described herein eliminate a separate controller and thereby eliminate the single point of failure (SPOF) represented by connection controllers and load balancers in a network as are common in the current state of the art. Servers in the server group may periodically refresh their connection details to enable group client to server connections based on dynamic real-time updates, establishing a high-availability server group for the provision of services.
