Abstract

A bottom-up hierarchical computer network architecture is provided. The architecture may include a central server. The architecture may also include a plurality of edge nodes that may be coupled to the central server. At least a first one of the edge nodes may be configured to process a transaction, compile data associated with the transaction, and store the data as a master dataset in the first edge node. The architecture may also include a data administration module. The data administration module may be configured to compare the master dataset in the first edge node to transactional data in the central server. When the transactional data in the central server is inconsistent with the master dataset in the first edge node, the data administration module may be configured to update the transactional data in the central server to be consistent with the master dataset in the first edge node.
