DATA MATRIX METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISTRIBUTION OF DATA

摘要

A method and system for distributing data from one or more main data sources to one or more consumer nodes . An abstract data matrix layer (14) is provided between a producer layer (12) and a consumer layer (16). A producer node (18, 20) multicasts data updates to selected data matrix nodes (22, 24, 26) in the data matrix layer, and a consumer node (28, 30) registers with the data matrix layer to receive designated data updates. One or more data matrix nodes then serve the requested data updates on the requesting consumer node.
