MÉCANISMES DE STATISTIQUES ET D'ANALYSE ÉVOLUTIFS DANS UN RÉSEAUTAGE EN NUAGE

摘要

Systems, methods, and computer readable storage mediums are disclosed for scalable data collection and aggregation of statistics for logical objects of an application centric network. An analytics agent running on a logical object of an application centric network is elected as one of a Designated Stats device (DSD) or a Member Stats device (MSD). If the analytics agent is defined as a DSD, the analytics agent receives data reported from a downstream MSD communicated over the analytics plane and aggregates data from the MSD belonging to the same access control list rule. If the analytics agent is defined as an MSD, the analytics agent selects a DSD and reports the statistics to that DSD over the analytics plane.
