This disclosure describes methods and systems to externally manage network-to-network interconnect configuration data in conjunction with a centralized database subsystem. An example of the methods includes receiving and storing, in the centralized database subsystem, data indicative of user intent to interconnect at least a first network and a second network. The example method further includes, based at least in part on the data indicative of user intent, determining and storing, in the centralized database subsystem, a network intent that corresponds to the user intent. The example method further includes providing data indicative of the network intent from the centralized database subsystem to a first data plane adaptor, associated with the first network, and a second data plane adaptor, associated with the second network.

A method for determining a misconfiguration of components in an Information Technology (IT) infrastructure includes decomposing one or more components into sub parts, creating one or more synthetic objects, each synthetic object being associated with a sub part of a respective component, and including the components and the synthetic objects in a model of the IT infrastructure. The method further determines a relationship between a first component and a first synthetic object based on attributes of the first component and attributes of the first synthetic object, includes the determined relationship in the model of the IT infrastructure, and loads a graph of the IT infrastructure in a graph database with the first component and the synthetic object as nodes and the determined relationship as an edge in the graph. The method further determines the misconfiguration of components in the IT infrastructure by identifying components having improper relationships in the graph.

Methods performed by a wireless device operating in a dormant mode comprise performing a measurement on each of a plurality of resources from a predetermined set of resources or demodulating and decoding information from each of a plurality of resources from a predetermined set of resources, such as a set of beams. The methods further include evaluating the measurement or the demodulated and decoded information for each of the plurality of resources against a predetermined criterion, and then discontinuing the performing and evaluating of measurements, or discontinuing the demodulating and decoding and evaluation of information, in response to determining that the predetermined criterion is met, such that one or more resources in the predetermined set of resources are neither measured nor demodulated and decoded. The methods further comprise deactivating receiver circuitry, further in response to determining that the predetermined criterion is met.

Example communication methods and example apparatuses are provided. One example method includes obtaining, by an adaptor client, a southbound interface protocol type, where the adaptor client manages two or more protocol adaptors. The adaptor client can then select a first protocol adaptor from the two or more protocol adaptors based on the southbound interface protocol type, where the first protocol adaptor implements a first protocol.

In an embodiment, a method, for deploying an edge application server (EAS) is disclosed. The method includes receiving an EAS deployment request to create an EAS instance associated with an EASFunction class, identifying, based on the EAS deployment request, one or more requirements for the EAS instance, selecting an edge data network (EDN) based on the one or more requirements for the EAS instance, and creating a managed object instance (MOI) corresponding to the EAS deployment request.

Novel tools and techniques for network data plane management are provided. A system includes a host machine that includes a database, processor, and non-transitory computer readable media comprising instructions executable by the processor to obtain, via the database, a network configuration, spawn a container according to the network configuration, wherein the container is configured, based on the network configuration, to be coupled to a network overlay via a network interface, receive, via the network interface, incoming data associated with the container, the incoming data having attached one or more attached network data attributes, and identify, via the database, the attached one or more network data attributes attached to the incoming data as one or more network data attributes of the network data model.

Various systems and methods are provided for propagating information throughout a data center or other network environment. For instance, in certain embodiments, the functionality disclosed herein includes determines propagation rules, and then either stores and/or propagates those rules throughout the datacenter or other network environment. Propagation rules define various conditions or other variables that govern propagation of information throughout a system, such as those systems described herein. The propagation rules can then be used to perform various other functionality. For instance, the functionality described herein can be used to process updates to entities. The functionality described herein can also be used to process updates to propagation metadata. Additionally, the functionality described herein can be used to process the creation of new relationships. The functionality described herein can also be used to process the deletion of objects and/or relationships. All of the foregoing functionality can be performed automatically.

A gateway is provided with configuration management logic to identify a set of configurations corresponding to a deployment of a particular application, and automatically send corresponding configuration data to a set of devices in range of the gateway. Service management logic of the gateway determines that assets on the set of devices correspond to one or more asset abstractions defined for the particular application, where the configuration data is sent to the set of devices based on the assets corresponding to the asset abstractions. Sensor data is received during the deployment as generated by a sensor asset of one of the devices, the sensor data is processed according to service logic of the particular application to generate a result, and actuating data is generated and sent during the deployment to an actuator asset on the set of devices based on the result.

A state control method includes detecting an operation execution event used for requesting to operate on a first object in a first application. The method also includes determining whether a next node of a current node of the first object in a hybrid state machine is a first state node or a first behavior-tree node. Nodes in the hybrid state machine includes at least a state node and a behavior-tree node, and a state change relationship exists among the nodes in the hybrid state machine. The method further includes, when it is determined that the next node is the first state node, performing on the first object an operation in a first state corresponding to the first state node; and, when it is determined that the next node is the first behavior-tree node, performing on the first object an operation in a first behavior-tree corresponding to the first behavior-tree node.
