Abstract
In one embodiment, a method and apparatus for a mechanism for data diffusion and evaporation across networks is disclosed. The method includes maintaining event data of a data management network at individual agents in the data management network without utilizing a central management server and diffusing event data between the individual agents by randomly selecting an event data entity from a local cache of an agent of the individual agents, and transmitting a copy of the randomly selected event data entity into a cache of another agent of the individual agents via a random connection created between the agent and the another agent. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
