Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for defining a telecommunications network deployment for a particular geographic region comprised of a set of sub-regions, the telecommunications network including an access network, an edge network and a core network. For each UE of multiple UEs distributed across the particular geographic region, the method selects a traffic category from a set of traffic categories to associate with the UE, and based on the selected traffic category, the method uses an application traffic model to compute an upper threshold limit of an attainable data rate for the UE. For each link of multiple transport links that connect the multiple UEs to the telecommunications network, the method determines a link capacity for each transport link based on the upper threshold limits of the attainable data rates computed for each UE of the multiple UEs. The method simulates performance of the telecommunications network based on the determined link capacities for the multiple transport links. When a set of performance metrics resulting from simulating performance of the telecommunications network meet a performance threshold specified for the telecommunications network, the method uses the determined link capacities to define the telecommunications network deployment for the particular geographic region.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for evaluating a deployment of a telecommunications network for a particular geographic area, the telecommunications network including an access network, an edge network, and a core network. The method is performed through a user interface (UI). The method receives a selection to simulate performance of a particular deployment of the access network, the particular deployment including at least (1) configurations for multiple access nodes for providing end-users of the telecommunications network access to the telecommunications network and (2) configurations for multiple transport links that connect the multiple access nodes to the telecommunications network. The method displays a visualization of the particular deployment of the telecommunications network based on the simulated performance, the visualization including (1) representations of multiple components of the telecommunications network including the multiple access nodes, (2) representations of the multiple transport links, (3) indications of performance by the multiple components and the multiple transport links, and (4) a set of selectable UI items for modifying configurations of the multiple access nodes and multiple transport links.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for defining a telecommunications network deployment for a particular geographic region, the telecommunications network including an access network, an edge network, and a core network. The method determines population density of UEs (user equipment) for the particular geographic region. Based on the determined population density, the method divides the particular geographic region into a set of sub-regions. For each sub-region in the set of sub-regions, the method simulates performance of the telecommunications network to explore multiple configurations for access nodes that connect UEs in the sub-region to the telecommunications network. Each configuration in the multiple configurations is defined based on population density of the sub-region. The method selects a particular configuration for access nodes from the multiple configurations for use in defining a deployment of the telecommunications network.

Abstract: A method comprising instantiating virtual routers (VRs) at each of a set of nodes that form a network. Each VR is coupled to the network and to a tenant of the node. The network comprises virtual links in an overlay network provisioned over an underlay network including servers of a public network. The method comprises configuring at least one VR to include a feedback control system comprising at least one objective function that characterizes the network. The method comprises configuring the VR to receive link state data of a set of virtual links of the virtual links, and control routing of a tenant traffic flow of each tenant according to a best route of the network determined by the at least one objective function using the link state data.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for defining compute resource deployments in a telecommunications network for a particular geographic region, the telecommunications network including an access network, an edge network and a core network, the compute resources for consumption by a set of non-telephony applications that are deployed in the telecommunications network to provide multiple services for multiplicities of UEs (user equipment) connected to the telecommunications network in the particular geographic region. The method determines population density of UEs (user equipment) within the particular geographic region. For each non-telephony application in the set of non-telephony applications, the method uses the determined population density of UEs to identify (1) an amount of compute resources required for the non-telephony application to provide one or more respective services in the multiple services to a first multiple UEs, and (2) a set of locations in a non-core network at which to deploy the identified amount of compute resources for consumption by the non-telephony application. The method simulates performance of the telecommunications network for the particular geographic region based on the identified amounts and sets of locations of compute resources for each non-telephony application in the set of non-telephony applications. When a set of performance metrics resulting from simulating performance of the telecommunications network meet a set of performance metric thresholds specified for the telecommunications network, the method uses the identified amounts and sets of locations of compute resources for the set of non-telephony applications to define compute resource deployments for the telecommunications network.

Abstract: A system comprising nodes coupled to a network including virtual links in an overlay network provisioned over an underlay network. The system includes a virtual machine (VM) provisioned at a node and coupled to the network. The VM is configured to receive feedback data of link conditions, and use the feedback data to dynamically determine and adapt an optimal route through the network. The VM is configured to control routing of traffic flows using the optimal route. The routing includes split routing of a traffic flow from the node via two or more of the virtual links.
