Abstract
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining information regarding a metaverse object and data regarding network resources, deriving a mapping between the metaverse object and one or more of the network resources based on the information and the data, and providing a hybrid service design and orchestration (H-SDO) system with access to the mapping to facilitate selection of particular network resources for supporting one or more metaverse service requests relating to the metaverse object. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Claims20
A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system of a network system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
- mapping a metaverse object with physical network resources, logical network resources, or a combination thereof;
- and
- causing a metaverse service to be provided for a mobile user device based on the mapping, wherein the network system comprises a plurality of access networks including access network resources, a plurality of transport networks including transport network resources, and a plurality of core networks including core network resources, and wherein the access network resources, the transport network resources, and the core network resources are abstracted into respective universal resource ports that are selectable to provide the metaverse service.
A method, comprising:
- causing, by a processing system including a processor, a metaverse service request to be submitted to a hybrid software-defined network (H-SDN);
- and
- receiving, by the processing system, a metaverse service based on the metaverse service request, wherein the H-SDN includes a metaverse service and physical world mapping and abstraction layer that maps metaverse object attributes with network resources of one or more access networks, one or more transport networks, and one or more core networks.
A device, comprising:
- a processing system including a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system of a network system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
- mapping a metaverse object with physical network resources, logical network resources, or a combination thereof;
- and
- causing a metaverse service to be provided for a mobile user device based on the mapping, wherein the network system comprises a plurality of access networks including access network resources, a plurality of transport networks including transport network resources, and a plurality of core networks including core network resources.
