Facilitating enablement of intelligent service aware access utilizing multiaccess edge computing in advanced networks
Abstract
Facilitating enablement of intelligent service aware access utilizing multiaccess edge computing advanced networks (e.g., 5 G, 6 G, and beyond) is provided herein. Operations of a method can comprise determining a network service being utilized by a first user equipment device has not been instantiated at a distributed network device and based on the first user equipment device approaching a service range of the distributed network device. The method also can comprise deploying the network service, as a microservice, at the distributed network device prior to the first user equipment device entering the service range of the distributed network device. Further, the method can comprise removing the network service from being deployed at the distributed network device based on a determination that the first user equipment device is no longer within the service range of the distributed network device and a second user equipment device is not utilizing the network service.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the communications network is a communications network configured to operate according to a fifth generation network communication protocol.
11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the communications network is a communications network configured to operate according to a sixth generation network communication protocol.
12 . A system, comprising:
a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
determining that a user equipment is approaching a service area of network equipment, wherein the network equipment is associated with a distributed network that is included in a communications network that employs decentralized core services;
determining that a network service utilized by the user equipment is unavailable via the distributed network; and
instantiating the network service at the network equipment prior to the user equipment entering the service area of the network equipment, wherein a first application and a second application are executing via the user equipment, and wherein the instantiating comprises:
enabling a first communication of the first application via a first access technology based on a first microservice employed for the first application, and
enabling a second communication of the second application via a second access technology based on a second microservice employed for the second application, wherein the second access technology is different from the first access technology.
13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the enabling of the first communication comprises enabling a first virtual session between the network equipment and the user equipment, and wherein the enabling of the second communication comprises enabling a second virtual session, different than the first virtual session, between the network equipment and the user equipment.
14 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the enabling of the first virtual session comprises enabling the first access technology, wherein the enabling of the second virtual session comprises enabling the second access technology, and wherein the first access technology and the second access technology are employed by the user equipment.
15 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the operations further comprise:
determining that the user equipment has left the service area of the network equipment; and removing an instantiation of the network service from the network equipment.
16 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the determining that the user equipment is approaching the service area of the network equipment comprises receiving a connection request from the user equipment, and wherein the connection request comprises information indicating a type of the user equipment and the network service.
17 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the network equipment is selected from a group of network equipment that geographically divide an amount of information communicated within the communications network, and wherein the group of network equipment comprises the network equipment and other network equipment.
18 . A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
determining that a user equipment is approaching a service range of network equipment, wherein the network equipment is associated with a distributed network that is part of a communications network that employs decentralized core services; determining that a network service utilized by the user equipment is unavailable via the distributed network; and instantiating the network service at the network equipment prior to the user equipment entering the service range of the network equipment, wherein a first microservice is employed for a first application executing on the user equipment, wherein a second microservice is employed for a second application executing on the user equipment, and wherein the instantiating comprises:
