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.

This application provides a network connection configuration method and an apparatus. The method is as follows: After a terminal device obtains network configuration information of an application in the terminal device, the terminal device sends the network configuration information to a core network control plane network element, so that the core network control plane network element may determine a network connection that is of the application and is between the terminal device and the data network and that meets the network configuration information.

A network element is herein disclosed. The network element comprises an embedded device having one or more property affecting a function of the embedded device and one or more status; a first computing system having a first processor and a first memory, the first memory being a first non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a device microservice and a hardware entity microservice, the hardware entity microservice in communication with the embedded device; a second computing system having a second processor and a second memory, the second memory being a second non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a core framework microservice; and a communication device in communication with the first computing system and the second computing system.

One or more systems, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products to facilitate a process for consensus regarding proceeding with a request of a transaction are provided. A system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a services component that operates a service of a transaction, where the services component approaches consensus regarding a request of the transaction by communicating with one or more other services components that operate one or more other services immediately upstream or downstream in the transaction to the service. The services component can approach the consensus by communicating only with the one or more other services components. To approach the consensus, the services component can communicate one or more messages that include one or more requests, votes or final decisions.

A communication method and an apparatus are provided. The method includes: A common application programming interface framework core function (CCF) network element first sends reference information of an application to a first network element. Therefore, the first network element determines network slice information corresponding to the application; and then the first network element sends the determined network slice information to the CCF network element. In this way, the CCF network element may determine the network slice information corresponding to the application, so that when an API invoker network element searches for an API, the CCF network element can accurately find, based on an API inquiry parameter, the API from a network slice corresponding to the network slice information.

A method for controlling application access to network slicing service at a User Equipment (UE). The method includes: issuing an activation request for establishing network connectivity service for an application executing at the UE, the activation request including an application identifier of the application; determining a network slice for the application based on the activation request; performing a verification of the determined network slice, in accordance with network slicing operator policies; and upon successful verification of the determined network slice, creating a binding between the application identifier and the determined network slice.
