QUERY PROXY FOR DELIVERY OF DYNAMIC SYSTEM STATE

Abstract:

In general, techniques are described for providing a dynamic system state for a distributed operating system. A network device comprises a plurality of hardware computing nodes configured to execute a distributed operating system that provides an execution environment in which a plurality of applications is executed. A computing node of the plurality of computing nodes is configured to configure a dynamic state application to operate as a proxy to receive one or more requests for state information stored in a data store. The computing node retrieves the state information stored in the data store; stores the retrieved state information in a local data store of the computing node; receives one or more requests for the state information; and sends a response including the requested state information from the local data store.
