Abstract
A policy server may include a policy parser that is communicably coupled to a configuration database. The policy parser may identify a policy data model in the configuration database associated with a policy. The policy data model may include a policy object expressed in a human-readable format. The policy server may include a policy engine for constructing a dynamic acyclic graph (DAG) representing the policy data model. The policy engine may include a code generation engine for parsing the DAG to generate code in a high-level language. The policy engine may include a compiler for compiling the generated code to generate binaries for implementing the policy. The policy server may include a policy dispatcher for generating a notification to a policy client to dispatch the binaries to at least one subscriber of the policy following the code being compiled. The policy server may asynchronously update the policy for the subscribers.
