Abstract

A system is disclosed for orchestrating services. Service orchestration profiles specify attributes defining desired services. The service orchestration profiles may be distributed amongst nodes and hierarchically related to each other. Service orchestration management functions process the information in the service orchestration profiles in order to determine the desired services and use the information to implement the desired services. The service orchestration management functions may be hierarchically related to each other.

Claims23

Dependent claims

A computing system comprising:

one or more computing processors;
and
computing memory communicatively coupled to the one or more computing processors, the computing memory having stored therein executable instructions that, upon execution, cause the system to implement a first service orchestration management function and cause the first service orchestration management function to perform operations comprising:
detecting that orchestration of a service is to be performed;
processing a first orchestration profile to identify a service node, a service layer, or a service capability for orchestration;
determining using the first orchestration profile a desired service configuration for orchestration;
determining that the first orchestration profile identifies a second orchestration profile, the second orchestration profile associated with a second service orchestration management function;
transmitting a request to the second service orchestration management function to orchestrate a service using the second orchestration profile;
and
receiving from the second service orchestration management function an indication that the requested orchestration using the second orchestration profile has been performed.
