摘要： Improved and more efficient techniques are described for reducing the amount of work that needs to be performed by a database in a computer network in order to distribute event summary data to a large number of administrator clients. Delays experienced by event data at a database, e.g., due to delays in accessing a database, are reduced so that client can be notified of the events as soon as possible. Furthermore, event data obtained from both local and remote networks is efficiently coordinated using replica and union processes. Each monitoring location in the network includes both locally generated events, and a copy of remotely-generated events which are provided and maintained by one or more remote monitoring locations. The monitoring locations update one another with their event data.

摘要： Described herein are methods and systems for preparing to efficiently distribute data to be extracted from a data store to clients and for distributing such prepared data to the clients. The methods and system have particular utility in the context of a network monitoring system which captures and stores network event data and makes the event data available to clients according to any desired view or summary. One method for preparing the data involves storing as primary requests one or more client requests for data to be extracted from the event database. Additional client requests for event are each compared to the stored primary requests to determine whether each additional request matches a stored primary request in accordance with a given criterion, such as a filter or summary formula. If the additional request matches a stored primary request, the additional client request is associated with the matching primary request. If the additional request does not match a stored primary request, the additional request is stored as a new primary request. As a result of this method, client requests which match one another can be processed at once and distributed to all clients registering the request.

摘要： Network management data is managed by determining that a first version and a second version of a set of network management data have been created. The set of network management data is associated with a plurality of managed entities in a network. First and second network graphs are created based on the first version and second version of the set of network management data, respectively. The first and second network graphs include a first and second set of entities in the plurality of managed entities, respectively. A similarity metric is assigned between at least one or more entities in the first and second set of entities. At least a first entity in the first set of entities and at least a second entity in the second set of entities are determined to be identical entities based on the similarity metric being one of equal to and above a first given threshold.
