    Abstract: A remote node device including a hardware layer, a hardware abstraction layer, and a software stack operating on the hardware abstraction layer. The software stack including an open-source cloud-based operating system integrated with a service provider defined abstraction layer configured to coordinate functionality of the software stack, virtualized software components such as a virtualized Converged Cable Access Platform (vCCAP) implemented in docker containers where the vCCAP is configured to command and control the remote node device with respect to a customer premise equipment. The software layer of the remote node device includes different types of YANG data models for model-driven management and model-driven telemetry from the remote node device and a customer premise equipment to a service provider back-office system.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods related to on-boarding software applications on a platform used in a content delivery and/or service provider network. In one embodiment, a centralized platform such as a premises gateway is provided to act as an application portal or store for all consumer devices that connects to a service provider network. In one variant, a software architecture is provided for the gateway which includes at least one of an open-sourced OS (e.g., OpenWrt) and containerization engine (e.g., Docker) which enables a broader range of application compatibility with the gateway itself and end user devices within the premises by abstracting the services and functions above the specific hardware/firmware configurations of each of the end user devices.
