AUTONOMOUS OPERATION OF EDGE-BASED DEPLOYMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17733745 titled 'AUTONOMOUS OPERATION OF EDGE-BASED DEPLOYMENTS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system for managing computing resources in a network that includes a computing service provider and an edge computing network.

  • The edge computing network is notified when there is a disconnection between the computing service provider and the edge computing network.
  • In response to the disconnection, the edge computing network enters an autonomous mode.
  • The edge computing network is designed to continue providing computing and network services even while operating in the autonomous mode.


Original Abstract Submitted

Computing resources are managed in a computing network comprising a computing service provider and an edge computing network. The edge computing network receives an indication of a disconnection of communications between the computing service provider and the edge computing network. In response to the indication, the edge computing network initiates an autonomous mode at the edge computing network. The edge computing network is configured to continue providing computing and network services at the edge computing network while the edge computing network is operating in the autonomous mode.
