Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If manual identification and configuration of network services is performed, then customers can configure services according to their needs, but the process becomes cumbersome and resource-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by automatically analyzing customer usage data and generating service configurations without requiring manual customer intervention. The configuration service autonomously identifies suitable services and configures infrastructure based on observed usage patterns, eliminating the need for customers to manually navigate complex configuration processes while maintaining service adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
A configuration service acts as an intermediary between customer usage data and network service deployment. This intermediary component analyzes usage information, determines appropriate services, and automatically configures infrastructure, thereby simplifying the configuration process while preserving the ability to provide customized services based on customer needs.
2Ease of operation
If manual configuration processes are used, then customers can control service setup, but errors and inefficient resource utilization occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical configuration operations with automated computational analysis. The configuration service uses algorithmic processing to analyze usage data and determine service configurations, eliminating human error associated with manual setup while maintaining operational simplicity for customers.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms by continuously monitoring customer usage patterns and using this information to automatically adjust and optimize service configurations. This closed-loop approach ensures high configuration accuracy by base on actual usage behavior while keeping the process simple for customers.
3Adaptability or versatility
If individual network services implement independent configuration processes, then each service can be customized, but the overall configuration becomes more complex and resource-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple independent service configuration processes into a single unified configuration service. This consolidated approach analyzes customer usage data once and coordinates configuration across multiple services simultaneously, maintaining individual service customization capabilities while dramatically improving overall configuration efficiency and reducing resource consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The configuration service is designed as a universal multi-functional system that can handle configuration for multiple different network services through a single unified process. This universal approach maintains the ability to customize individual services while avoiding the inefficiency of separate configuration processes for each service.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing a network-based service infrastructure configuration for a plurality of network-based services. A configuration service may identify one or more network-based services based on identifying the customer's profile and grouping the customer with other customers having a similar profile. After grouping the customer input, the configuration service may automatically provide network infrastructure configuration templates. The configuration service may identify and verify attributes required by each identified service and its associated property values. The configuration service may configure the infrastructure configuration by selecting a template from the plurality of templates stored in a datastore.
