Abstract: Restoring network configurations using network topology snapshots can include obtaining a first network topology snapshot that describes a first configuration of a network environment at a first point in time, obtaining a second network topology snapshot that describes a second configuration of the network environment at a second point in time, calculating a difference between the first network topology snapshot and the second network topology snapshot, presenting the difference for display, in response to determining that a request to restore a previous configuration has been received, identifying a configuration change that is to be reverted and a restore point associated with the configuration change to be reverted, and outputting a command that, when executed by an orchestration service, causes the orchestration service to revert the configuration change.

Abstract: A processing system including at least one processor may be maintain an historical graph database storing historical graph state information for a graph including a set of elements, where the historical graph state information includes, for each element, respective element state information and respective state version tracking information for the respective element. The processing system may receive an event indicative of a management action associated with a first element, where the first element may include a new element to be added to the graph or an existing element of the set of elements. The processing system may update, based on the event, the historical graph state information of the historical graph database, where the updating may include providing respective state version tracking information for the first element, and handle, based on the historical graph database, a query to retrieve a set of information of the graph.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, presenting a first model representative of a communication system, receiving, based on the presenting of the first model, a first input that identifies a first communication device included in the communication system, responsive to the receiving of the first input, presenting values for a plurality of operating parameters associated with the first communication device, receiving a second input that includes a modification of at least one value of a parameter included in the plurality of operating parameters, identifying, based on the receiving of the second input, a second model that is dependent on the first model, and modifying the second model based on the identifying of the second model. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Storage systems and method to store data, from a data source, which is responsive to one or more requests from at least one data consumer. A data store is configured to cache at least some data from the data source. A data management component is configured to store the at least some data in the data store based on at least one criteria of the data consumer. At least one criteria is identified based on the one or more requests. Data is stored in the at least some data from the data source in response to the identifying the at least one criteria.

Abstract: A processing system including at least one processor may maintain a graph database including graph state information for a set of elements of a graph, where the graph state information includes, for each element in the set of elements of the graph, respective element state information for the respective element. The processing system may further generate, from the graph database, an historical graph database including historical graph state information, where the historical graph state information includes, for each element in the set of elements of the graph, the respective element state information for the respective element and respective state version tracking information for the respective element.

Abstract: A device that monitors a network element in a network topology of network elements within a software defined network (SDN) and identifies a first node state and a second node state for the network element. The device detects an occurrence of an error between the first node state and the second node state. The device determines a differential for the network element between the first node state and the second node state indicating changes to the network element occurring between the first node state and the second node state. The device, based on determining the differential, displays one or more attributes or the one or more relationships associated with the network element at the first node state, the second node state or the differential between states.
