Abstract: Methods and systems described herein are directed resolving object dependencies in a data center. A trie data structure that represents network paths of objects utilized by a selected source object is constructed. The trie data structure comprises nodes linked by edges. Each node represents an edge identification (“ID”) of source objects and destination objects of one or more network paths of objects utilized by the selected source object in a user-defined time interval. The trie data structure is traversed to resolve the different versions of source objects and destination objects utilized by the selected source object in subintervals of the time interval. A graph of the objects and destination objects utilized by the selected source object in the subintervals is generated and used to identify source objects and destination objects utilized by the selected source object during a performance problem of the selected source object.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for service chaining in fabric networks such that hardware resources can be preserved without service nodes needing additional capabilities. The techniques may include storing a first configuration associated with a first VRF instance of a service forwarding node that is connected to a first service of a service chain sequence. The first configuration may indicate an identifier and a type associated with a second service of the service chain sequence where traffic is to be sent after the first service. Additionally, the techniques may also include storing a second configuration associated with a second VRF instance of the service forwarding node that is connected to the second service. The second configuration may indicate that the second service is a last service of the service chain sequence. When traffic is received at the service forwarding node, the service forwarding node can determine whether the traffic is pre-service traffic or post-service traffic.
