    Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a deployment and management of composite application service is provided. The service may allow a third party to develop and on-board logic that manages an application service hosted in an application layer network of a network provider. The logic may include optimization of the application service and remedial procedures that address events associated with degradation and/or performance of the application service. The service may configure resources of a host device to host the logic and expose services provided by the network provider in support of the management of the application service.

    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide unified policy management framework network functions in enterprise networks. The systems and methods store an abstract micro-service template configured from predefined configuration elements; receive descriptive information for a vendor-specific micro-service that corresponds to the abstract micro-service template; solicit first customer labels for at least some of the predefined configuration elements associated with a group of users for a micro-service on a customer network; solicit second customer labels for other of the predefined configuration elements associated with applications used on the customer network; generate a vendor-agnostic micro-service template using the first customer labels, the second customer labels, and the abstract micro-service template; convert, based on the descriptive information, the vendor-agnostic micro-service template into a vendor-specific micro-service template for the customer; and generate, based on the vendor-specific micro-service template, a network policy for enforcement across multiple sites of the customer network.

    Abstract: A customer premises device may include a memory configured to store day 0 configuration instructions, a first network interface to couple to an out-of-band orchestration and management path, a second network interface operatively coupled to a customer network, and at least one processor configured to automatically and without user input execute the day 0 configuration instructions. The at least one processor is configured to establish and maintain a secure tunnel connection with a security gateway device via the out-of-band orchestration and management path and to establish a connection with a configuration platform on the provider network via the secure tunnel connection. Orchestration instructions for configuring one or more VNFs are received from the configuration platform via the tunnel connection. The at least one processor is further configured to receive VNF management instructions via the secure tunnel connection, wherein the VNF management instructions include one of: updates, reconfigurations, or patches.
