Abstract
Examples disclosed herein relate to a method comprising detecting a plurality of changes in a database, wherein the database is used to configure a switch operating traffic on a network. The method may include determining that a subset of the plurality of changes are to be deferred before being used to configure the switch, wherein each change in the subset has a potential dependency with at least one other change in the subset. The method may also include iterating through each change in the subset. The iteration may include confirming that a target change has a dependency with another change in the subset, resolving the dependency and transmitting the target change to an object manager for configuration of the switch.
