The invention provides a server application function thermal expansion method and system. The method comprises the steps of defining application basic information, an application dependency relationship and an external service interface of an application; managing the operation of the application, namely after starting the application, loading the application, operating the application and unloading the application according to the basic information of the application and the dependency relationship of the application; scanning the basic information of the application, confirming the newly added application, loading the newly added application according to the application dependency relationship, if an abnormal condition occurs in the loading process, terminating the loading process, and recording the abnormal condition; otherwise, continuing the loading process until the loading is successful, receiving the unloading request, setting the application state as to-be-unloaded, and performing reverse unloading operation according to the module dependency relationship; And monitoring application operation, identifying abnormal conditions in application operation, and processing the abnormal conditions. The function expansion and unloading of the server application under the non-stop condition are realized; Operation monitoring of the function level is achieved, and early warning preprocessing is carried out.
