Summary:An embodiment of the invention may include a method, computer program product, and system for data transfer management. The embodiment may include receiving a data packet, by a first server, from a load balancer. The received data packet is part of a data flow. The embodiment may include determining, by the first server, whether the received data packet is part of an existing data flow connection served by the first server. Based on determining that the received data packet is not part of an existing data flow served by the first server, the embodiment may include determining, by the first server, whether the received data packet is part of a new data flow connection. Based on determining that the received data packet is not part of a new data flow connection, the embodiment may include notifying, by the first server, the load balancer.
