Systems and methods for high availability and performance preservation for groups of network functions

A non-transitory computer-readable medium, storing a plurality of processor-executable instructions to:

• monitor a set of Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”) associated with one or more Virtualized Network Functions (“VNFs”) implemented at a first data center;
• determine that a first VNF and a second VNF, of the one or more VNFs implemented at the first data center, are not associated with a shared communication interface between the first and second VNFs;
• detect a failover event associated with the first data center based on a determination that the set of KPIs associated with the one or more VNFs do not meet a set of performance thresholds;
• and
• fail over the first and second VNFs to a second data center based on:
• the detecting of the failover event, and
• the determination that the first and second VNFs are not associated with a shared communication interface between the first and second VNFs.

A method, comprising:

• monitoring a set of Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”) associated with one or more Virtualized Network Functions (“VNFs”) implemented at a first data center;
• determining that a first VNF and a second VNF, of the one or more VNFs, are not associated with a predefined communication interface between the first and second VNFs;
• detecting a failover event associated with the first data center based on a determination that the set of KPIs associated with the one or more VNFs do not meet a set of performance thresholds;
• and
• failing over the first and second VNFs to a second data center based on:
• the detecting of the failover event, and
• the determination that the first and second VNFs are not associated with a predefined interface between the first and second VNFs.
