Abstract
In one example, there is disclosed a domain master for a data exchange layer (DXL), including: a hardware platform configured to execute instructions; and one or more memories having stored thereon instructions to instruct the hardware platform to: communicatively couple to the DXL; provide a DXL messaging service including native support for request-response (1:1) transactions via a publish-subscribe (1:N, N>1) fabric; provide DXL domain master services for a DXL domain; and provide DXL-based real-time policy and task distribution for DXL endpoints of the DXL domain.

A domain master for a data exchange layer (DXL), comprising:
- a hardware platform configured to execute instructions;
- and
- one or more memories having stored thereon instructions to instruct the hardware platform to:
- communicatively couple to the DXL;
- provide a DXL messaging service comprising native support for request-response (1:1) transactions via a publish-subscribe (1:N, N>1) fabric;
- provide DXL domain master services for a DXL domain;
- and
- provide DXL-based real-time policy and task distribution for DXL endpoints of the DXL domain.
One or more tangible, non-transitory computer-readable mediums having stored thereon executable instructions to instruct a processor to:
- communicatively couple to a data exchange layer (DXL);
- provide a DXL messaging layer for communicating with the DXL, the DXL messaging layer configured to support request-response (1:1) transactions over a publish-subscribe (1:N, N>1) fabric;
- act as a domain master for a DXL domain;
- and
- distribute real-time policy and task updates to the DXL domain.
A method of providing real-time policy and task updates to a data exchange layer (DXL) domain, comprising:
- communicatively coupling to a data exchange layer (DXL), wherein the DXL is configured to natively support request-response (1:1) transactions over a publish-subscribe (1:N, N>1) fabric;
- identifying as a domain master for the DXL domain;
- identifying a policy update driver;
- configuring a policy update according to the policy update driver;
- and
- publishing the policy update as a DXL message.
