## Abstract

The technology described herein allocates resources in a cloud computing environment using a 5G network. The system can connect a device to the 5G network and collect data related to the device such as a location of the device and characteristics of use of the device with the 5G network. The system can create a device service profile of the device based at least in part on the data related to the device. The system can then dynamically partition computing resources within the cloud computing environment for the device based on the device service profile and a time-of-day in the location of the device to thereby provide on-demand access to content or services in the cloud computing environment to the device over the 5G network.
