Abstract
There is provided a method, said method comprising receiving network information, using said network information to determine whether a change to a network is required, and if so, using said network information to determine at least one cause of a change to the network being required and providing, in dependence of the at least one cause, at least one option for at least one change to said network.
Claims24
A method, comprising:
- receiving network information;
- using said network information to determine whether at least one change to a network is required;
- using said network information to determine at least one cause of the at least one change;
- providing, in dependence of the at least one cause, at least one option for at least one hardware adjustment to said network;
- and
- determining if at least one trigger event is occurring in dependence on said network information, wherein said network information comprises:
- network performance information determined using predictive analytics and configured to one or more of identify at least one anomaly and forecast at least one anomaly, wherein the at least one anomaly is one or more of at least one threshold violation and at least one identified pattern, and
- the at least one trigger event is an event outside the scope of network implementation.
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
- receive network information;
- use said network information to determine whether at least one change to a network is required;
- use said network information to determine at least one cause of the at least one change;
- provide, in dependence of the at least one cause, at least one option for at least one hardware adjustment to said network;
- and
- determine if at least one trigger event is occurring in dependence on said network information, wherein said network information comprises one or more of:
- network performance information determined using predictive analytics and configured to one or more of identify at least one anomaly and forecast at least one anomaly, wherein the at least one anomaly is one or more of at least one threshold violation and at least one identified pattern, and
- the at least one trigger event is an event outside the scope of network implementation.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon for performing, when executed in hardware, at least the following:
- receiving network information;
- using said network information to determine whether at least one change to a network is required;
- using said network information to determine at least one cause of the at least one change;
- providing, in dependence of the at least one cause, at least one option for at least one hardware adjustment to said network;
- and
- determining if at least one trigger event is occurring in dependence on said network information, wherein said network information comprises:
- network performance information determined using predictive analytics and configured to one or more of identify at least one anomaly and forecast at least one anomaly, wherein the at least one anomaly is one or more of at least one threshold violation and at least one identified pattern, and
- the at least one trigger event is an event outside the scope of network implementation.
A method, comprising:
- receiving network information;
- using said network information to determine whether at least one change to a network is required;
- using said network information to determine at least one cause of the at least one change;
- providing, in dependence of the at least one cause, at least one option for at least one hardware adjustment to said network;
- and
- determining if at least one trigger event is occurring in dependence on said network information, wherein said network information comprises:
- network environment information determined using context-based analytics of contextual information external to said network, and
- the at least one trigger event is an event outside the scope of network implementation.
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
- receive network information;
- use said network information to determine whether at least one change to a network is required;
- use said network information to determine at least one cause of the at least one change;
- provide, in dependence of the at least one cause, at least one option for at least one hardware adjustment to said network;
- and
- determine if at least one trigger event is occurring in dependence on said network information, wherein said network information comprises:
- network environment information determined using context-based analytics of contextual information external to said network, and
- the at least one trigger event is an event outside the scope of network implementation.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon for performing, when executed in hardware, at least the following:
- receiving network information;
