MODULAR ARCHITECTURE FOR COMPUTER NETWORK OPERATIONS

Disclosed embodiments include a method of operation of a distributed network system. The method includes nodes of the network system that send messages over a protocol-independent message bus, and other nodes that receive the messages. Content from the received messages can be stored in a database distributed among nodes of the network system. At least some of the content stored in the database is published. The published content can be accessed by one or more applications to perform one or more functions.
