AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current systems lack an efficient method to monitor real-time resource usage by network node components, particularly virtual network function components (VNFCs), leading to potential mismatches in resource allocation and usage.

Method used

A method and system that utilize an auditor unit (AU) to retrieve resource allocation data from an inventory management unit (IMU), compare it with real-time resource usage data fetched from an adaptor unit (ADU), and update the database with final resource usage information for each VNFC.

Benefits of technology

This solution ensures accurate monitoring of resource usage by VNFCs, enabling real-time updates and improving resource management by identifying overused or underused resources, thus enhancing system efficiency and fault tolerance.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method and a system for monitoring resource usage details by network node components The disclosure encompasses retrieving, from an inventory management unit (IMU) [314], a first list of resources. Further, the disclosure encompasses transmitting, to an adaptor unit (ADU) [312], the first list of resources. Further a second list of resources is fetched from the ADU [312]. Further the disclosure encompasses comparing, first list of resources and second list of resources for each VNFC. Further the disclosure encompasses transmitting, to IMU [314], a final list of resources for each VNFC based on the comparison, for updating the database based on the final list of resources.
