Abstract
Embodiments disclose a decision coordination method and an apparatus. The method includes: receiving a decision coordination request message from an execution part in a Network Functions Virtualization system, where the decision coordination request message includes a to-be-coordinated decision. The method also includes determining a coordinated decision according to the to-be-coordinated decision. The method also includes sending a decision coordination response message to the execution part, where the decision coordination response message includes the coordinated decision, and the decision coordination response message is used to instruct the execution part to execute the coordinated decision.
Claims19
A method, comprising:
- receiving a decision coordination request message from a first entity in a Network Functions Virtualization system, wherein the decision coordination request message comprises a plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions for a target operation, and wherein to-be-coordinated decisions of the plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions are separately generated by different second entities of a plurality of second entities in the Network Functions Virtualization system;
- determining a coordinated decision according to the plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions;
- and
- sending a decision coordination response message to the first entity, wherein the decision coordination response message comprises the coordinated decision, and the decision coordination response message instructs the first entity to execute the coordinated decision.

A method, comprising:
- obtaining a plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions for a target operation, wherein to-be-coordinated decisions of the plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions are separately generated by different entities of a plurality of second entities in a Network Functions Virtualization system;
- sending a decision coordination request message to a decision coordinator in a Network Functions Virtualization system, wherein the decision coordination request message comprises the plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions, and the decision coordination request message instructs the decision coordinator to determine a coordinated decision according to the plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions;
- and
- receiving a decision coordination response message from the decision coordinator, wherein the decision coordination response message comprises the coordinated decision.
1 more element
A decision coordinator, comprising:
- a receiver, configured to receive a decision coordination request message from a first entity in a Network Functions Virtualization system, wherein the decision coordination request message comprises a plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions for a target operation, wherein to-be-coordinated decisions of the plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions are separately generated by different entities of a plurality of second entities in the Network Functions Virtualization system;
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program to be executed by the processor, the program including instructions for:
- determining a coordinated decision according to the decision coordination request message comprising the plurality of to-be-coordinated decisions received by the receiver;
- and
- a transmitter, configured to send a decision coordination response message to the first entity, wherein the decision coordination response message comprises the coordinated decision, and the decision coordination response message instructs the first entity to execute the coordinated decision.
