Well, I am not sure what you mean by "compression"...
The template mechanism that I was referring to is (briefly) described in slides 11 and 12 of slides-120-netmod-10-bbf-liaison-on-management-at-scale-projects<https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/120/materials/slides-120-netmod-10-bbf-liaison-on-management-at-scale-projects> In figurative terms, the slides say that: The actual data nodes of an instance to be configured are internally generated from a “photocopy” of the data nodes of an original configuration (template, green dots on slide 12) that is customized here and there (cf blue dots on slide 12) for this specific instance. The gain in the running data store size is that * only one copy of the many green dots of one (or say, a few) templates need to be persistently configured and stored on the device * only a few blue dots need to be persistently configured and stored on the device, different for each instance (many ones) Best regards, Robert -----Original Message----- From: Carsten Bormann <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2024 4:19 PM To: Robert Peschi (Nokia) <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: Jürgen Schönwälder <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; Italo Busi <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [netmod] Yang Scalability [You don't often get email from [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>.

Is “template mechanism” just a weird way to say “compression”? We know how to do the latter. Grüße, Carsten
