Methods and apparatus for implementing both transient and persistent name services are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, a name service may be arranged to store and process both transient and persistent infor mation. The implementation of at least one storage mechanism arranged to store persisten t information for such name service includes creating a recursive section of a hierarchical name space structure. The recursive section of the name space struc ture is arranged to process both the transient information and the persistent informa tion. Implementing the name service also includes creating a local section of the name space structure. The local section includes an implementation that embodies the storage mechanism, which is encapsulated in a data store interface, that is arra nged to store the persistent information. |
