Edge service deployment with network slice invocation

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• obtaining one or more service-related parameters for network slice invocation to support an edge service instance, wherein the edge service instance is to execute at an edge device;
• requesting a network slice from a network based on the obtained one or more service-related parameters, the requesting from the network being via a third party collaboration platform that is separate from and coordinates between a host service to supply the edge service instance, the network, and the edge device;
• receiving from the network, based on the requesting of the network slice, network slice invocation codes;
• and
• initiating, by the host service, activating of the edge service instance on the edge device over the network slice of the network using the network slice invocation codes.

A computer system for facilitating processing within a computing environment, the computer system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor in communication with the memory, wherein the computer system is configured to perform a method, the method comprising:
• obtaining one or more service-related parameters for network slice invocation to support an edge service instance, wherein the edge service instance is to execute at an edge device;
• requesting a network slice from a network based on the obtained one or more service-related parameters, the requesting from the network being via a third collaboration platform that is separate from and coordinates between a host service to supply the edge service instance, the network, and the edge device;
• receiving from the network, based on the requesting of the network slice, network slice invocation codes;
• and
• initiating, by the host service, activating of the edge service instance on the edge device over the network slice of the network using the network slice invocation codes.
