    Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for the dynamic selection of edge computing devices, such as Multi-Access/Mobile Edge Computing devices (“MECs”), to provide services to User Equipment (“UEs”) based on factors such as MEC load, services and/or applications available or supported by particular MECs, UE location, service requirements, and/or other factors. One or more devices that are external to a network with which MECs are provided may be able to request services from a suitable MEC and/or identify a suitable MEC to provide such services. In this manner, control over the selection of particular MECs may be provided to devices or systems that are external to the network, thus providing an enhanced level of granular control and dynamism to such external devices or systems with respect to MEC selection.

    Abstract: A first device may receive, from a first client device, a request for information from a second client device, wherein the second client device is connected to a second device that is geographically separated from the first device, and the first device is hosted in a first cloud computing environment and the second device is hosted in a second cloud computing environment. A first outbound routing agent associated with the first device may route the request to a second outbound routing agent associated with the second device, wherein the second outbound routing agent routes the request to the second client device to cause the second client device to generate a response. A first inbound routing agent associated with the first device may receive the response from a second inbound routing agent associated with the second device, and may provide the response to the first client device.

    Abstract: An application client on a user device receives an internal request from within the application client. The internal request is associated with edge application device(s) hosted by a computing platform. In response to the internal request, the application client obtains an authorization token from the computing platform and initiates an edge discovery request to the computing platform using the authorization token. In response to the edge discovery request, the application client receives connection information of a particular edge application device among the edge application device(s) that is identified for the application client by the computing platform. The application client establishes a connection between the application client and the particular edge application device using the connection information of the particular edge application device.
