DISco: a Distributed Information Store for network Challenges and their Outcome
Sylvain Martin, Laurent Chiarello, Guy Leduc

TL;DR
DISco is a middleware system that facilitates distributed, autonomous network management by enabling multi-agent detection of challenges, coordinated responses, and tracking of network issues for diagnosis.
Contribution
It introduces a novel middleware combining peer-to-peer publish/subscribe and distributed storage for autonomous network challenge management.
Findings
Supports multi-agent challenge detection and remediation
Tracks challenge evolution for diagnosis
Enables human-assisted network diagnosis
Abstract
We present DISco, a storage and communication middleware designed to enable distributed and task-centric autonomic control of networks. DISco is designed to enable multi-agent identification of anomalous situations -- so-called "challenges" -- and assist coordinated remediation that maintains degraded -- but acceptable -- service level, while keeping a track of the challenge evolution in order to enable human-assisted diagnosis of flaws in the network. We propose to use state-of-art peer-to-peer publish/subscribe and distributed storage as core building blocks for the DISco service.
