Abstract
A data confidence fabric that is network topology aware is disclosed. When data is able to be transmitted over one of multiple communication channels, confidence information related to the transmission of the data over a selected communication channel is associated with the data. Events, such as failover, are also reflected in the confidence information and confidence score of the data. The confidence information and/or confidence scores allow applications to determine how to trust data in a manner that accounts for the transmission path.
