EDGE CONTROLLER WITH NETWORK PERFORMANCE PARAMETER SUPPORT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18432206 titled 'EDGE CONTROLLER WITH NETWORK PERFORMANCE PARAMETER SUPPORT
Simplified Explanation
The method described in the abstract involves moving network service configurations between resources of an edge device based on network performance parameters.
- Receiving multiple configurations for provisioning network services at different resources of an edge device.
- Determining performance factors for resources providing network services.
- Moving configurations between resources based on performance factors not meeting specified network performance parameters.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in edge computing environments where dynamic allocation of network resources is required based on performance metrics.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient utilization of network resources in edge devices. 2. Dynamic adjustment of network configurations to meet performance requirements.
Benefits
1. Improved network performance. 2. Flexibility in provisioning network services. 3. Optimal resource allocation based on performance factors.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing network resource allocation in edge computing environments for improved performance and efficiency.
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to dynamic resource allocation in network environments, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.
Unanswered Questions
How does the method determine the performance factor for each resource?
The abstract does not detail the specific methodology used to calculate the performance factor for each resource providing network services.
What types of network services are included in the configurations?
The abstract does not specify the nature of the network services being provisioned in the configurations.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method includes receiving a plurality of configurations comprising a first configuration for provisioning a first set of network services at a first resource of an edge device and a second configuration for provisioning a second set of network services at the first resource, a first configuration group identifier identifying a configuration group for the first configuration, and a first network performance parameter for the configuration group. The method further includes determining a performance factor for the first resource providing the first set of network services to one or more client devices. The method further includes, in response to determining that the performance factor does not satisfy the first network performance parameter for the configuration group and that the first configuration group identifier identifies the configuration group for the first configuration, moving the first configuration from the first resource to a second resource of the edge device.
