Data analytics method, apparatus, and system

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one non-transitory computer readable memory connected to the one or more processors and including computer program code, wherein the at least one non-transitory computer readable memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to at least:
• receive first indication information from a first network element, wherein the first indication information indicates to provide the first network element with mobility analytics information that indicates a location order of a terminal;
• obtain mobility related information of the terminal from a second network element;
• obtain the mobility analytics information by processing the mobility related information based on the first indication information, wherein the mobility analytics information comprises first time information and at least one location of the terminal in each sub-time period of a first time period, wherein the first time information is a time point at which the terminal enters the location in the sub-time period, and wherein locations of the terminal are different in two sub-time periods that are adjacent in time;
• and
• send the mobility analytics information to the first network element.

A system, comprising:

• a data analytics network element;
• and
• a first network element;
• wherein the data analytics network element is configured to:
• receive first indication information from a first network element, wherein the first indication information indicates to provide the first network element with mobility analytics information that indicates a location order of a terminal;
• obtain mobility related information of the terminal from a second network element;
• obtain the mobility analytics information by processing the mobility related information based on the first indication information, wherein the mobility analytics information comprises first time information and at least one location of the terminal in each sub-time period of a first time period, wherein the first time information is a time point at which the terminal enters the location in the sub-time period, and wherein locations of the terminal are different in two sub-time periods that are adjacent in time;
• and
• send the mobility analytics information to the first network element;
• and
• wherein the first network element is configured to:
• send the first indication information to the data analytics network element;
• and
• receive the mobility analytics information.
