Method for determining application context relocation scenario and communication apparatus

An apparatus, comprising at least one processor coupled to at least one memory storing instructions and configured to execute the instructions to cause the apparatus to:

• obtain capability information of a plurality of first edge application servers EASs, and/or capability information of one or more second entities;
• and
• determine a corresponding target application context relocation scenario for at least one of the plurality of first EASs based on the capability information of the plurality of first EASs and/or the capability information of the one or more second entities, wherein
• the plurality of first EASs are associated EASs, and application contexts in the associated EASs need to be relocated together;
• and
• the capability information of the second entity indicates whether the second entity has a capability of processing relocation of the application contexts in the associated EASs together, the capability information of the first EAS indicates whether the first EAS has the capability of processing relocation of the application contexts in the associated EASs together.

A computer program product comprising instructions that are stored on a computer-readable medium and that, when executed by one or more processors, cause an apparatus to:

• obtain capability information of a plurality of first edge application servers EASs, and/or capability information of one or more second entities;
• and
• determine a corresponding target application context relocation scenario for at least one of the plurality of first EASs based on the capability information of the plurality of first EASs and/or the capability information of the one or more second entities, wherein
• the plurality of first EASs are associated EASs, and application contexts in the associated EASs need to be relocated together;
• and
• the capability information of the second entity indicates whether the second entity has a capability of processing relocation of the application contexts in the associated EASs together, the capability information of the first EAS indicates whether the first EAS has the capability of processing relocation of the application contexts in the associated EASs together.
