    Abstract: A disclosed method may include (1) receiving, at an IPFIX collector, a IPFIX message from an IPFIX exporter implemented on a remote device, (2) identifying, within the IPFIX message, a data set exported by the IPFIX exporter implemented on the remote device, (3) identifying, within the IPFIX message, a data-level indicator that indicates whether the data set is (A) a primary data set observed by an observation domain implemented on the remote device or (B) a secondary data set derived by an observation cloud implemented on the remote device, (4) identifying, at the IPFIX collector, a database that corresponds to the data-level indicator identified within the IPFIX message, (5) storing the data set in the database in accordance with the data-level indicator, and then (6) performing an action based at least in part on the data set stored in the database. Various other systems and methods are also disclosed.
