Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for event notification. In one implementation, a method is provided.

A plurality of pending event notifications that can be combined are identified. Two or more event notifications are combined.

(canceled)
A method comprising:
- determining, by a computer system, that a threshold number of pending event notifications in a queue has been exceeded by an incoming event notification;
- determining that two or more event notifications in the queue are associated with a common feature of the computer system;
- and
- combining the two or more event notifications based on the common feature such that the number of pending event notifications, including the combined two or more event notifications, in the queue no longer exceeds the threshold number of event notifications, including replacing two or more event notifications with a single event notification indicating that a change has occurred with regard to the common feature.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions which, when executed by one or more processors causes:
- determining that a threshold number of pending event notifications in a queue has been exceeded by an incoming event notification;
- determining that two or more event notifications in the queue are associated with a common feature of a computer system;
- and
- combining the two or more event notifications based on the common feature such that the number of pending event notifications, including the combined two or more event notifications, in the queue no longer exceeds the threshold number of event notifications, including replacing two or more event notifications with a single event notification indicating that a change has occurred with regard to the common feature.
