Abstract
Implementations described herein relate to periodically verifying aliases, e.g., by causing cross-platform clients to periodically verify aliases with cross-platform servers to which they are subscribed. In various implementations, a global discovery server (GDS) may be queried for a mapping between an alias and a connection string of an input-output (I/O) channel hosted by a distributed control node (DCN). A cross-platform client may be subscribed to the I/O channel by establishing a persistent network connection using the connection string. The persistent network connection may be used to obtain, from a local alias database of the DCN, a locally updated list of mappings between aliases and connection strings. A discrepancy may be identified between the locally updated list of mappings and the mapping between the alias and the connection string of the I/O channel hosted by the DCN. Based on the discrepancy, various remedial actions may be taken.
