Title:
RESOURCE MANAGEMENT METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CONTAINERIZED VIRTUALISED NETWORK FUNCTION VNF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/186911
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A resource management method and device for containerized virtualised network function VNF, in the method, a virtualised network function manager VNFM, in executing the VNF instantiation process, refers to VDU definitions in VNFD for VM resources used to instantiate the VNF of different resource specifications, creates at least one container node resource pool at the NFVI layer, and then, sends the information of the at least one container node resource pool to a container as a service manager, which can realize seamless connection between the container node resource pool managed by the container as the service manager and the VM resources of the VNF. The container as the service manager can create the required container services for different components that make up the VNF on the container node resource pools of different resource specifications, so that the container services serving different telecom network functions can be managed and arranged on the basis of the container node resource pools of different resource specifications, which can improve the adaptability of container node resources to telecom network functions.
