SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGEMENT OF NETWORK MONITORING INFORMATION

摘要

A system and method for management of network monitoring information includes a data collector for collecting real-time network information from network switching units, an aggregator for periodically aggregating the collected real-time network information and generating corresponding history information, a preprocessor for periodically determining results for first queries based on the collected real-time network information and the history information, a data storage system, and a data retriever for retrieving information from the data storage system. The data storage system stores the collected real-time network information, the aggregated history information, and the preprocessed results of the first queries. The data storage system also periodically purges the stored real-time information based on a first time-to-live value and the stored history information based on a second time-to-live value. The information is retrieved based on the stored real-time network and history information, the stored preprocessed results of the first queries, the first queries, and second queries different from the first queries.

1. An information handling system comprising:
a data collector configured to collect real-time network monitoring information from one or more network switching units; an aggregator configured to periodically aggregate the collected real-time network monitoring information and generate corresponding history information; a preprocessor configured to periodically determine results for one or more first queries based on the collected real-time network monitoring information and the aggregated history information; a data storage system configured to store the collected real-time network monitoring information, the aggregated history information, and the preprocessed results of the one or more first queries; and a data retriever configured to retrieve information from the data storage system based on the stored real-time network monitoring information, the stored aggregated history information, the stored preprocessed results of the one or more first queries, the one or more first queries, and one or more second queries different from the one or more first queries; wherein the data storage system is further configured to periodically purge the stored real-time monitoring information based on a first time-to-live value and periodically purge the stored history information based on a second time-to-live value.
