SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USING A MACHINE LEARNING ALGORITHM TO MEET SLA REQUIREMENTS

摘要

A method includes collecting, at a monitoring and recovery node, a virtual network function key performance index data through multiple channels from a corresponding containerized virtual network function. The method includes maintaining, at the monitoring and recovery node, state information of the corresponding containerized virtual network function and running, at the monitoring and recovery node, a machine learning algorithm that, once trained, learns and predicts whether the corresponding containerized virtual network function requires one of a scaling, a healing or a context switching to sister virtual network function to yield a determination and meet the service level agreement of a network service.
