Abstract

An aspect of the disclosed technology is a general-purpose platform that may be used to provide resilient cloud services. Tasks may be written as procedures in general-purpose programming languages that directly manipulate resources via control interfaces. In one implementation, resource states, such as router configurations and virtual machine states, associated with a cloud customer that provides communications services, may be abstracted into tables in a relational or semi-structured database. State changes that have been written to the database tables are automatically propagated by the database to appropriate customer physical devices, such as network elements, thereby implementing various customer network operations.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method comprising:
replicating, at a logical layer of a memory device, a first state associated with a physical device, wherein the first state is stored at the physical device as a physical layer, and wherein replicating the first state associated with the physical device at the logical layer of the memory device causes the first state associated with the physical device to be stored also at the logical layer of the memory device;
executing, at th…
