METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EXECUTING AN APPLICATION UPGRADE USING NETWORK SLICING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17871574 titled 'METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EXECUTING AN APPLICATION UPGRADE USING NETWORK SLICING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for managing an application upgrade process. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • An urgent fix is received from an application monitoring agent.
  • It is determined that a high priority network slice of a network exists.
  • The urgent fix is mapped to the high priority network slice.
  • It is determined that a prerequisite fix is required.
  • The prerequisite fix is mapped to the high priority network slice.
  • The prerequisite fix and the urgent fix are sent to a reordering engine.
  • The reordering engine prioritizes the prerequisite fix and the urgent fix in the receiving queue.
  • The prerequisite fix and the urgent fix are sent to a client device upgrade manager.
  • The client device is upgraded based on the prerequisite fix and the urgent fix.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This method can be used in software development and deployment processes to efficiently manage application upgrades and fixes.
  • It can be applied in various industries where software updates are critical, such as telecommunications, healthcare, and finance.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • It addresses the challenge of managing urgent fixes and prerequisite fixes in an application upgrade process.
  • It ensures that high priority network slices are properly handled and that fixes are applied in the correct order.

Benefits of this technology:

  • It improves the efficiency of application upgrades by prioritizing urgent fixes and prerequisite fixes.
  • It reduces the risk of errors or delays in the upgrade process by mapping fixes to the appropriate network slices.
  • It enhances the overall reliability and performance of client devices by ensuring that upgrades are based on the necessary fixes.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for managing an application upgrade includes: making a first determination that an urgent fix is received from an application monitoring agent; making, based on the first determination, a second determination that a high priority network slice of a network exists; mapping, based on the second determination, the urgent fix to the high priority network slice; making a third determination that a prerequisite fix is required; mapping the prerequisite fix to the high priority network slice; sending the prerequisite fix and the urgent fix to the reordering engine; reordering at least one fix available in a receiving queue of the reordering engine to prioritize the prerequisite fix and the urgent fix in the receiving queue; sending the prerequisite fix and the urgent fix to a client device upgrade manager; and initiating upgrading of a client device based on the prerequisite fix and the urgent fix.
