    摘要: Methods and apparatus for coordinating inter-region operations in provider networks. An inter-region coordinator (IRC) operates asynchronously to the control planes of regional networks to coordinate inter-region operations. The IRC in a region may include one or more IRC servers. To perform inter-region operations, the servers may implement a local-remote-local method in which a server invokes an API in the local region to get work, sends the work to a control plane of a remote region, receives a response from the remote region, and informs the control plane in the local region of the status of the work.

    摘要: A network management apparatus according to an embodiment includes: a storage device configured to store information indicating a correspondence relationship between information objects related to a logical layer, information objects related to a physical layer in a network configuration, and information objects related to a facility layer which are objects in which the information objects related to the physical layer are housed; an acquisition unit configured to acquire an information object related to an occurrence path of a failure in the logical layer of the network configuration, from the storage device; and a search unit configured to search for, among the information objects related to the facility layer stored in the storage device, an information object related to the facility layer and the physical layer associated with the information object related to the occurrence path of the failure acquired from the acquisition unit, as a candidate for a facility that causes the failure.
