Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method of storing operational data for network elements in a software-defined network (SDN). At metrics manager of a framework for collecting, aggregating, and storing the operational data for the SDN, the method receives, during a particular time period, a primary set of metrics collected from at least one SDN network element, and stores the first set of metrics in a volatile memory. The metrics manager uses a set of aggregation rules to aggregate the primary set of metrics into a secondary set of aggregated metrics. The metrics manager stores the secondary set of aggregated metrics in a non-volatile memory to use to monitor performance of the at least one SDN network element.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method of providing operational data for network elements in a software-defined network (SDN). The method deploys a framework for collecting operational data for a set of network elements in the SDN. The framework of some embodiments includes an interface for different client applications to use in order to configure the framework to collect and aggregate the operational data based on different collection and aggregation criteria that satisfies different requirements of the different client applications. The method also deploys data collectors in the SDN that the framework configures to collect operational data from the set of network elements in the SDN.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method of presenting operational data from several network elements in a software-defined network (SDN). An operational data aggregator of the SDN receives a first request to view metric data for a first time period prior to a current time. The operational data aggregator presents the a first group of sets of aggregated metrics created for the first time period. The operational data aggregator also receives a second request to view metric data for a second time period prior to the current time. The operational data aggregator presents a second group of sets of aggregated metrics created for the second time period. The first group of sets of aggregated metrics has at least one aggregated metric set that is at a different aggregation granularity than all other sets of aggregated metrics in the second group of sets of aggregated metrics.
