A network device may determine, based on a provisioning request to host an application platform, a configuration of resources of a network for maintaining the application platform within the network. The network device may provision the resources to permit access to the application platform via a domain. The network device may receive, from a user device, a domain request that includes the domain, wherein the domain request is associated with configuring an application session between an application of the user device and the application platform. The network device may provide, to the user device, a response that includes an address of a host resource of the application platform, wherein the host resource is one of the resources. The network device may receive, from the user device, a session request that includes the address and may establish the application session between the user device and the host resource.
