System and method of maintenance of network slice templates for slice orchestration

A system of maintenance of network slice templates for slice orchestration, the system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores processor instructions, which, on execution, causes the processor to:
• extract a plurality of parameters from a template data within a template request message;
• determine at least one network slice template from a plurality of templates, based on comparison of the plurality of parameters with parameters associated with the plurality of templates, wherein to determine the at least one network slice template, the processor instructions further cause the processor to:
• compare the plurality of templates with the plurality of parameters;
• remove at least one template from the plurality of templates, wherein each of the at least one template fail to match at least one category within at least one of slice sub-net types associated with the template request message and at least one of the plurality of parameters;
• determine performance indicators for each of the remaining plurality of templates;
• compare performance indicators determined for each of the remaining plurality of templates with performance indicators associated with the template request message;
• determine a performance indicator score for each performance indicator for each of the remaining plurality of templates based on the comparing;
• determine a cumulative performance score for each of the remaining plurality of templates based on the performance indicator score determined for each performance indicator for each of the remaining plurality of templates;
• and
• identify a set of templates from the remaining plurality of templates, wherein the cumulative performance score for each template in the identified set of templates is greater than a first score threshold;
• receive performance feedback for each of the at least one network slice template based on usage of the at least one network slice template;
• determine modifications required to be performed on the at least one network slice template, based on the performance feedback;
• and
• adapt the at least one network slice template based on the determined modifications.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon, a set of computer-executable instructions causing a computer comprising one or more processors to perform steps comprising:

• extract a plurality of parameters from a template data within a template request message;
• determine at least one network slice template from a plurality of templates, based on comparison of the plurality of parameters with parameters associated with the plurality of templates, wherein the determining the at least one network slice template comprises:
• comparing the plurality of templates with the plurality of parameters;
• removing at least one template from the plurality of templates, wherein each of the at least one template fail to match at least one category within at least one of slice sub-net types associated with the template request message and at least one of the plurality of parameters;
• determining performance indicators for each of the remaining plurality of templates;
• comparing performance indicators determined for each of the remaining plurality of templates with performance indicators associated with the template request message;
• determining a performance indicator score for each performance indicator for each of the remaining plurality of templates based on the comparing;
• determining a cumulative performance score for each of the remaining plurality of templates based on the performance indicator score determined for each performance indicator for each of the remaining plurality of templates;
• and
• identifying a set of templates from the remaining plurality of templates, wherein the cumulative performance score for each template in the identified set of templates is greater than a first score threshold;
• receive performance feedback for each of the at least one network slice template based on usage of the at least one network slice template;
• determine modifications required to be performed on the at least one network slice template, based on the performance feedback;
• and
• adapt the at least one network slice template based on the determined modifications.
