System and method for management of network monitoring information
A system and method for management of network monitoring information includes a data collector for collecting real-time network information from network switching units, an aggregator for periodically aggregating the collected real-time network information and generating corresponding history information, a preprocessor for periodically determining results for first queries based on the collected real-time network information and the history information, a data storage system, and a data retriever for retrieving information from the data storage system. The data storage system stores the collected real-time network information, the aggregated history information, and the preprocessed results of the first queries. The data storage system also periodically purges the stored real-time information based on a first time-to-live value and the stored history information based on a second time-to-live value. The information is retrieved based on the stored real-time network and history information, the stored preprocessed results of the first queries, the first queries, and second queries different from the first queries.
