Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for offloading network data to a datastore. A system includes a plurality of instances of a datastore node in a single networking device, each of the plurality of instances of the datastore node comprising: a datastore; a publisher independent of the datastore for publishing data to the datastore; a subscriber independent of the datastore for receiving information from the datastore; a replicator agent configured to connect to the datastore as a publisher or a subscriber; and a persistent storage agent configured to connect to the datastore as a publisher or a subscriber.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for offloading network data to a datastore. A system includes a publisher device in a network computing environment. The system includes a subscriber device in the network computing environment. The system includes a datastore independent of the publisher device and the subscriber device, the datastore comprising one or more processors in a processing platform configurable to execute instructions stored in non-transitory computer readable storage media. The instructions includes receiving data from the publisher device. The instructions include storing the data across one or more of a plurality of shared storage devices. The instructions include providing the data to the subscriber device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for improved routing operations in a network computing environment. A system includes a first switch and a second switch in a network topology. The system includes a host virtual machine in communication with at least one of the first switch and the second switch. The system includes a routed peer link connecting the first switch to the second switch. The system is such that the first switch and the second switch have the same Internet protocol (IP) address and media access control (MAC) address.
