Certain embodiments described herein are generally directed to techniques for computing grouping object memberships in a network. Embodiments include receiving a plurality of network configuration updates. Embodiments include identifying delta updates to a plurality of grouping objects based on the plurality of configuration updates. Embodiments include determining a parallel processing arrangement for the delta updates based on dependencies in a directed graph comprising representations of the plurality of grouping objects. Embodiments include processing the delta updates according to the parallel processing arrangement in order to determine memberships of the plurality of grouping objects. Embodiments include distributing one or more updates to one or more endpoints based on the memberships of the plurality of grouping objects.
