Abstract
Systems and methods for managing state data from monitored entities in a computing environment are described. In a push-based approach, a publisher computer obtains state data of an element from the monitored entities and sends the state data on to a subscriber computer. From the state data, the publisher computer generates one metadata record for the element that is updated as newer state data is obtained such that each element is associated with just one record. The publisher computer scores and ranks the records of the elements based on a time since previous state data was sent to the subscriber computer, a magnitude of a change, and the existence of one or more event flags. The publisher computer schedules and queues the state data according to their ranking. The highest priority record in a queue is sent only when a timing signal indicates that state data can be sent.
