1. A system for managing a plurality of clients, said system comprising:
- a memory area adapted to store topology data, said topology data identifying a relationship between the plurality of clients;
a notification adapted to indicate a change in configuration data, said configuration data relating to an operation of at least one affected client from the plurality of clients;
a notification service adapted to search the memory area in response to the notification to identify the affected client based on the topology data and to notify the affected client of the change in the configuration data, andcomputer executable instructions for;
identifying the client affected by the change in the configuration data based on the topology data stored in the memory area;
generating a notification manifest identifying the client affected by the change in the configuration data;
generating the notification as a function of the notification manifest; and
sending the notification to the memory area;
wherein the memory area is adapted to store the notification, and wherein the notification service is further adapted to access the memory area to receive said notification and to notify said affected client of the change in the configuration data in response to receiving said notification by sending the notification manifest to a cache manager associated with the affected client, wherein the notification manifest is adapted to enable said cache manager to identify and execute the change in the configuration data of the affected client.

Abstract
System and method for managing a plurality of clients. A request to implement a change in configuration data is received from a user. The configuration data relates to an operation of a client. The received request is stored in a memory area. Computer-executable instructions request topology data from the memory area based on the configuration data to identify the client. The requested topology data is received from the memory area. Computer-executable instructions identify a notification service associated with the client and notify the identified notification service of the change in the configuration data.
