Abstract: A method performed by an active-network slice management function (NSMF) of an active-cloud orchestrator node for geo redundancy (GR) awareness, comprises sending, to a GR controller of the active-cloud orchestrator node, a GR information request message to receive GR information. The method comprises receiving, from the GR controller, a GR information response message comprising the GR information including a synchronization status between the active-NSMF and a standby-NSMF of a standby-cloud orchestrator node and a current state of each of the active-NSMF and the standby-NSMF. The method comprises determining at least one action to be performed based on the GR information. The method comprises performing the at least one action for life cycle management (LCM) operation.

Abstract: Embodiments of present disclosure relate to a method and an electronic device for determining a storage node (SN) for a network element (NE) in a communication network. The method comprises detecting addition of a NE to a plurality of NEs, wherein each of the plurality of NEs is dynamically allocated to a virtualization unit of a plurality of virtualization units, obtaining context information associated with each of a plurality of storage nodes and the NE upon detecting the addition of the NE to the plurality of NEs, wherein the plurality of storage nodes is located in the communication network and configured to store data associated with the plurality of NEs, and determining a storage node from the plurality of storage nodes for the NE, based on the context information associated with each of the plurality of storage nodes and the NE, wherein the virtualization unit of the plurality of virtualization units allocated to each of the plurality of NEs is updated upon selection of the storage node for the NE.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for generating a descriptor for a network slice are provided. The apparatus includes a transceiver, a memory storing one or more instructions, and at least one processor configured to execute the one or more instructions stored in the memory to obtain requirements for a network slice, determine at least one of a plurality of network slice templates (NSTs), a plurality of network slice descriptors (NSLDs), or a plurality of network slice instances (NSIs), based on the obtained requirements, when at least one of the plurality of NSTs is determined, determine at least one specific node to substitute for a plurality of abstract nodes included in the at least one of the plurality of NSTs, based on the obtained requirements, and generate a descriptor for a network slice, based on the determined at least one specific node.
