Abstract
Certain embodiments described herein are generally directed to consistent processing of transport node network configuration data in a physical sharding architecture. For example, in some embodiments a first central control plane (CCP) node of a plurality of CCP nodes determines a sharding table, which is shared by the plurality of CCP nodes. In certain embodiments, the first CCP node determines a connection establishment between a first transport node and the first CCP node. In some embodiments, if the first CCP node determines, based on the sharding table, that it is a physical master of the first transport node, the first CCP node receives network configuration data from the first transport node, stores at least a portion of the network configuration data, and transmits a data update comprising at least a portion of the network configuration data to a shared data store accessible by the plurality of CCP nodes.
