OPERATOR PLATFORM INSTANCE FOR MEC FEDERATION TO SUPPORT NETWORK-AS-A-SERVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18216257 titled 'OPERATOR PLATFORM INSTANCE FOR MEC FEDERATION TO SUPPORT NETWORK-AS-A-SERVICE
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application discusses various approaches for Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) and Operator Platform (OP) systems and how to manage applications and services in such systems. - The example system described in the patent application is designed to coordinate the operations of a MEC system and an EDGEAPP system. - The system focuses on performing lifecycle management (LCM) operations of MEC and EDGEAPP applications in an Operator Platform instance within an Operator Platform domain. - By enabling coordination between MEC and EDGEAPP applications in their respective systems, the system enhances the overall performance of an Operator Platform. - The system receives application data from an application client associated with either the MEC system or the EDGEAPP system. - The received application data is then transmitted to an application host associated with the other system. - This enables the system to facilitate the lifecycle management of respective apps and facilitate communication between MEC and EDGEAPP systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
Various approaches for Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) and Operator Platform (OP) systems, and management of applications and services in such systems, are discussed herein. An example system is configured to coordinate operations of a MEC system and an EDGEAPP system. The system performs lifecycle management (LCM) operations of MEC and EDGEAPP applications in an Operator Platform instance in an Operator Platform domain, enabling coordination of the MEC and EDGEAPP applications in their respective systems. The system receives application data from an application client of a user equipment (UE) associated with either the MEC system or the EDGEAPP system and transmits the application data to an application host associated with (e.g., executed on) the other system. The system thus enables LCM of respective apps and communications among MEC and EDGEAPP systems, enhancing the overall performance of an Operator Platform.
