PARALLEL EXECUTION OF NETWORK SERVICES WITH OVERLAPPING DEVICE CONFIGURATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18121965 titled 'PARALLEL EXECUTION OF NETWORK SERVICES WITH OVERLAPPING DEVICE CONFIGURATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application is about techniques, methods, and systems for managing a set of data network nodes in a Network Management System (NMS).

  • The method involves receiving a service invocation for a service transaction associated with a transaction object.
  • The network orchestrator stores service metadata as part of the transaction object.
  • It then determines if there is a service metadata conflict associated with the transaction object.
  • If there is a conflict, the service transaction is retried.
  • If there is no conflict, the service metadata is applied to one or more nodes of the data network.


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques, methods, and systems for managing a set of data network nodes in a Network Management System (NMS). In some examples, a method may include receiving, at the network orchestrator, a service invocation for a service transaction associated with a transaction object; storing, by the network orchestrator, service metadata as part of the transaction object; determining whether there is a service metadata conflict associated with the transaction object; and in response to determining that there is the service metadata conflict associated with the transaction object, retrying the service transaction; or in response to determining that there is no service metadata conflict associated with the transaction object, applying the service metadata to one or more nodes of the set of data nodes.
