Datacenter, communication apparatus, communication method, and communication control method in a communication system

A datacenter comprising:

• a gateway configured to connect to a communication facility owned by a network operator over a network;
• a first virtual network that implements mobile communication functions by using the communication facility;
• a second virtual network that provides a cloud service;
• and
• a server configured to distribute traffic from the communication facility, to the first virtual network or the second virtual network.

A communication apparatus owned by a network operator, comprising:

• at least one base station wirelessly connected to a terminal;
• and
• a first gateway configured to perform communication over a network with a first virtual network or a second virtual network that provides a cloud service within a datacenter owned by another network operator,
• wherein mobile communication functions are implemented by the first virtual network and the at least one base station, wherein the second virtual network provides a predetermined service to the terminal connected to the communication facility.

A communication control method in a datacenter, comprising:

• by a gateway unit, connecting to a communication facility owned by a network operator over a network;
• by a computing resource, constructing a first virtual network that implements mobile communication functions by using the communication facility and a second virtual network that provides a cloud service;
• and
• by a server, distributing traffic from the communication facility to the first virtual network or the second virtual network.
