Devices, systems, and techniques for global network state management are described herein. In one example, the present disclosure describes an example method performed by a software-defined network (SDN) controller that manages a network of a plurality of devices. The method include maintaining, by processing circuitry of the SDN controller, global network state information, configuring, by the processing circuitry, a notification service with a subscription for updates to a portion of the global network state information, wherein the notification service is configured to arrange the updates to the portion of the global network state information into a plurality of events, and distributing, by the notification service and via a plurality of interfaces, the plurality of events as event notifications to a plurality of subscriber micro-services of the SDN controller.
