Abstract
Method and system for distributing a notification of an event occurring at a one entity to an affected entity. In one embodiment, entities are grouped into one or more groups so that an event occurring at one entity of the group is distributed to the other entities of the group (“affected entities”). If an event occurs at an entity managed by a local entity manager, a notification of the event can be routed to a remote entity manager that manages an affected entity. The local entity manager can use a distributed mapping to determine where to route the event notification. In one embodiment the mapping associates an entity to an entity manager.
