Abstract
A method includes receiving network element data from a first compute instance that hosts a network element instance. The network element data includes identification and state information associated with the network element instance. The method includes creating a key based on the network element data that includes a network element identifier and a table identifier of a categorization of the state information. The network element identifier is associated with the identification information. The method includes storing the key and state information in a database and determining a failure of the first compute instance. The method includes determining a key associated with the network element identifier of the network element instance and transmitting activation data to a second compute instance. The activation data is associated with instructions to retrieve records associated with the key associated with the first network identifier including state information to recreate the first network element instance.
