AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current solutions are inefficient in managing service requests load and health alarm conditions of virtual and containerized network function component instances, particularly in 5G communication networks.

Method used

A method and system that utilize a Policy Execution Engine (PEEGN) to receive invoke policy requests, analyze resource availability, determine corrective actions, and trigger a network function lifecycle manager to perform scaling or healing actions on virtual and containerized network functions.

Benefits of technology

The system enables efficient auto-scaling and healing of virtual and containerized network function component instances, dynamically managing resource allocation and service orchestration to maintain network performance and reliability.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method [400] and system [300] for performing corrective actions on Network Functions (NFs) The disclosure encompasses: receiving, an invoke policy request from a network functions virtualization platform decision analytics (NPDA) module; sending, a request, wherein the request is for fetching details of the NFs from NF components; storing, a response received for the request comprising the details into a database; analysing, an availability of resources through a physical and virtual inventory manager (PVIM) for the NF components based on at least one of the invoke policy request and the response; determining, corrective actions based on at least one of the invoke policy request and the analysed resource availability; and triggering, a network function lifecycle manager to perform the corrective actions at the NF components based on the analysed resource availability and one or more predefined corrective policies associated with the corrective actions.
