METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PERFORMING DYNAMIC RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK
FIELD OF INVENTION
[0001] The present disclosure generally relates to field of wireless communication systems. More particularly, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and a system for performing dynamic resource management in a communication network.
BACKGROUND
[0002] The following description of the related art is intended to provide background information pertaining to the field of the disclosure. This section may include certain aspects of the art that may be related to various features of the present disclosure. However, it should be appreciated that this section is used only to enhance the understanding of the reader with respect to the present disclosure, and not as admissions of the prior art.
[0003] Wireless communication technology has rapidly evolved over the past few decades, with each generation bringing significant improvements and advancements. The first generation of wireless communication technology was based on analog technology and offered only voice services. However, with the advent of the second-generation (2G) technology, digital communication and data services became possible, and text messaging was introduced. 3G technology marked the introduction of high-speed internet access, mobile video calling, and location-based services. The fourth generation (4G) technology revolutionized wireless communication with faster data speeds, better network coverage, and improved security. Currently, the fifth generation (5G) technology is being deployed, promising even faster data speeds, low latency, and the ability to connect multiple devices simultaneously. With each generation, wireless communication technology has become more advanced, sophisticated, and capable of delivering more services to its users.
[0004] Over the last few years, the demand for scalable and resilient software systems has increased significantly. Additionally, microservices architecture has emerged as a popular approach for designing and deploying complex applications due to its flexibility and modularity. However, managing resources and ensuring optimal system functionality in a microservices environment can be challenging. For example, in microservices-based systems, the accurate transmission of responses, especially those that breach predefined resource

threshold limits, is critical. This further leads to system overload when resource constraints are not appropriately managed. Furthermore, this can lead to performance degradation and service disruptions, ultimately affecting user experience.
[0005] Further, over the period of time various solutions have been developed to address resource management and system scalability in microservices architecture. However, there are certain challenges with the existing solutions. For example, the existing solutions often involve static resource allocation, manual intervention, or rudimentary scaling strategies.
[0006] Thus, there exists an imperative need in the art to provide a method and a system to address the challenges associated with resource management and system overload prevention in microservices architecture, which the present disclosure aims to address.
SUMMARY
[0007] This section is provided to introduce certain aspects of the present disclosure in a simplified form that are further described below in the detailed description. This summary is not intended to identify the key features or the scope of the claimed subject matter.

The method further comprises transmitting, by the transceiver unit from the CMP microservice, the resource threshold limit exceed event to a network function virtualization platform decision analytics (NPDA) microservice. The method further includes initiating, by an initiating unit at the NPDA microservice, a hysteresis process in response to the resource threshold limit exceed event, wherein the hysteresis process is performed on resource constraints. The method further includes triggering, by a trigger unit at the NPDA microservice, one of scale in or scale out actions associated with network resources, based on the hysteresis process, to manage the network resources.

may be implemented in accordance with exemplary implementation of the present disclosure.
In an implementation, the computing device [200] may also implement a method for
performing dynamic resource management in a communication network utilising the system.
In another implementation, the computing device [200] itself implements the method for
10 performing dynamic resource management in a communication network, using one or more
units configured within the computing device [200], wherein said one or more units are capable of implementing the features as disclosed in the present disclosure.
[00061] The computing device [200] may include a bus [202] or other communication
mechanism for communicating information, and a hardware processor [204] coupled with bus [202] for processing information. The hardware processor [204] may be, for example, a general-purpose microprocessor. The computing device [200] may also include a main memory [206], such as a random-access memory (RAM), or other dynamic storage device, coupled to the bus [202] for storing information and instructions to be executed by the processor [204]. The main memory [206] also may be used for storing temporary variables or other intermediate information during execution of the instructions to be executed by the processor [204]. Such instructions, when stored in non-transitory storage media accessible to the processor [204], render the computing device [200] into a special-purpose machine that is customized to perform the operations specified in the instructions.

10 herein are performed by the computing device [200] in response to the processor [204]
executing one or more sequences of one or more instructions contained in the main memory [206]. Such instructions may be read into the main memory [206] from another storage medium, such as the storage device [210]. Execution of the sequences of instructions contained in the main memory [206] causes the processor [204] to perform the process steps described

[00067] Referring to FIG. 3, an exemplary block diagram of a system [300] for
performing dynamic resource management in a communication network is shown, in accordance with the exemplary implementations of the present disclosure. The system [300] comprises at least one transceiver unit [302], at least one capacity management platform (CMP)
15 microservice [304], at least one network function virtualization decision analytics NPDA
microservice [306], at least one an initiating unit [308], at least one trigger unit [310], and at least one validating unit [312]. Also, all of the components/ units of the system [300] are assumed to be connected to each other unless otherwise indicated below. As shown in the figures all units shown within the system should also be assumed to be connected to each other.
20 Also, in FIG. 3 only a few units are shown, however, the system [300] may comprise multiple
such units, or the system [300] may comprise any such numbers of said units, as required to implement the features of the present disclosure. In an implementation, the system [300] may reside in a server or a network entity. Further, in another implementation, the system [300] may be present in a user device to implement the features of the present disclosure. The system
25 [300] may be a part of the user device / or may be independent of but in communication with
the user device (may also referred to herein as a UE). In yet another implementation, the system [300] may reside partly in the server/ network entity and partly in the user device.
[00068] The system [300] is configured for performing dynamic resource management
in a communication network with the help of the interconnection between the components/units
30 of the system [300].
14

[00069] The system [300] comprises a transceiver unit [302] configured to receive, at a
capacity management platform (CMP) microservice [304], a breached response output comprising a resource threshold limit exceed event.
[00070] The transceiver unit [302] receives the breached response output at the capacity
5 management platform (CMP) microservice [304]. The breached response output comprises the
resource threshold limit exceed event. In an exemplary aspect, the breached response output
received at the transceiver unit [302] acts like a notification indicating that a resource threshold
limit of various components such as but not limited to a central processing unit (CPU), random
access memory (RAM), storage, etc. has exceeded the prescribed limit. For example, the
10 resource threshold limit exceed event is only fired if system constraint (i.e. CPU/RAM/Storage)
usage exceed above-prescribed limit.
[00071] In an exemplary aspect, the breached response output is derived from a create
task event, which means it was generated due to an ongoing task or process that has surpassed
15 acceptable resource usage limits.
[00072] In an exemplary aspect, threshold limit exceed event indicates that the resources
are under strain and could lead to performance issues if not addressed.
[00073] In an exemplary aspect, the breached response output is generated during an
20 instantiation phase. In an exemplary aspect, the instantiation phase is a period when resources
are initially allocated or set up for a new task, service, or application within the network. During this phase, the system [300] monitors resource usage closely as the new resources are being put into operation.
[00074] The transceiver unit [302] within the CMP microservice [304] receives the
25 breached response output during the instantiation phase suggesting that resource usage during
the setup phase has exceeded the threshold limits.
[00075] The transceiver unit [302] is configured to transmit, from the CMP microservice
[304], the resource threshold limit exceed event to a network function virtualization platform decision analytics (NPDA) microservice [306].
30 [00076] In an exemplary aspect, upon receiving the breached response output, the
transceiver Unit [302] transmits the resource threshold limit exceed event to the network
15

function virtualization platform decision analytics (NPDA) [306] using CMP Microservice [304].
[00077] The system [300] further comprises an initiating unit [308] connected to at least
the transceiver unit [302]. The initiating unit [308] is configured to initiate, at the NPDA
5 microservice [306], a hysteresis process in response to the resource threshold limit exceed
event, wherein the hysteresis process is performed on resource constraints.
[00078] The initiating Unit [308] at NPDA microservice [306] initiates the hysteresis
process based on the received resource threshold limit exceed event. In an exemplary aspect,
the hysteresis process involves analysing the current resource constraints to ascertain how to
10 adjust the resources to maintain system stability and performance.
[00079] In an exemplary aspect, the resource constraints comprise at least one from
among a central processing unit (CPU), a Random Access Memory (RAM), and a storage level.
[00080] In an exemplary aspect, the hysteresis process, in response to the resource
threshold exceed event, is performed on various resource constraints which include at least one
15 from among a central processing unit (CPU), random access memory (RAM), storage etc. The
hysteresis process analyses at least one of the current resource constraints to determine how to adjust the resources to maintain system stability and performance.
[00081] In an exemplary aspect, the hysteresis process involves a dynamic adjustment
of resource allocation parameters in real-time.
20 [00082] The hysteresis process involves dynamically adjusting resource allocation
parameters in real-time to manage system resources effectively. In an exemplary aspect, resource allocation parameters are adjusted dynamically based on current usage patterns. For example, if CPU usage exceeds its threshold exceed event, additional virtual machines or containers might be provisioned. Similarly, if usage drops significantly, resources might be
25 scaled back to avoid over-provisioning.
[00083] In an exemplary aspect, the resource threshold limit exceed event is triggered
when the usage of resource constraints exceeds a predetermined limit.
[00084] In an exemplary aspect, the resource threshold limit exceed event is triggered
when the usage of critical resource constraints such as but not limited to CPU, RAM, storage
16

etc. surpasses a predefined threshold. This predetermined limit acts as an indicator to monitor
resource consumption. When actual usage exceeds this predetermined limit, a signal indicating
the potential risk of system overload is notified. In an exemplary aspect, the resource threshold
limit exceed event is generated to alert the system about the excessive resource usage,
5 prompting it to initiate corrective actions to manage and balance the load, thereby maintaining
optimal system performance and preventing potential failures.
[00085] The system further comprises a validating unit [312] configured to validate the
resource constraints at the NPDA microservice [306].
[00086] The validating unit [312] validates the resource constraints using the NPDA
10 microservice [306]. In an exemplary aspect, the validating unit [312] validates by verifying the
accuracy and reliability of the resource constraint data at the NPDA microservice [306]. By
confirming the validity of this data, the validating unit [312] supports informed decision-
making regarding resource scaling actions, helping to prevent erroneous or inefficient
adjustments and enhancing the overall effectiveness of the system’s dynamic adjustment of
15 resource allocation parameters.
[00087] The system [300] further comprises a trigger unit [310] connected to at least the
initiating unit [308]. The trigger unit [310] is further configured to trigger, at the NPDA microservice [306], one of scale in or scale out actions associated with network resources, based on the hysteresis process, to manage the network resources.
20 [00088] The trigger unit [310] triggers, based on the hysteresis process, one of scale in
or scale out actions related to the network resources in order to efficiently and effectively manage the network resources. In an exemplary aspect, the trigger unit [310] triggers, at the NPDA microservice [306], scale in action which reduces the number of resources allocated by shutting down unnecessary network resources, Similarly, the trigger unit [310] triggers, at the
25 NPDA microservice [306], scale out action by adding additional resources to accommodate the
increased load.
[00089] In an exemplary aspect, the resource constraints are validated before triggering
the one of scale in or scale out actions.
[00090] Before triggering a scale in or scale out action by the trigger unit [310], the
30 resource constraints are validated to ensure that the decision to adjust resources is based on
17

accurate and reliable data. This validation process involves checking the reported resource
constraints usage such as CPU, RAM, storage etc, against threshold limit exceed event. By
performing this validation, the system [300] avoids making dynamic adjustments based on
erroneous or temporary spikes in resource usage, thereby preventing unnecessary scaling
5 actions that could destabilize the system or lead to inefficiencies. This careful validation
ensures that scale in or scale out actions are executed, when necessary, based on validated resource constraints, thus optimizing system performance and stability.
[00091] In an exemplary aspect, the network resources comprise at least one of a virtual
network function (VNF), a virtual network function component (VNFC), containerized
10 network function (CNF), and a containerized network function component (CNFC).
[00092] In an exemplary aspect, the virtual network function (VNF) refers to a network
function node that operates in virtualized environments such as virtual machines or containers. This virtualization allows for dynamic scaling and rapid adaptation to changing network conditions, improving and reducing hardware requirements.
15 [00093] In an exemplary aspect, the virtual network function component (VNFC) refers
to a sub-component within a virtual network function (VNF) that performs a specific task or set of tasks related to the overall network function. VNFCs reduce VNFs into smaller units, each responsible for unique functions, such as packet inspection, etc.
[00094] In an exemplary aspect, the containerized network function (CNF) refers to a
20 network function that acts as a portable container, which includes all necessary configurations.
CNFs offer increased portability, and scalability compared to traditional network functions.
More particularly, the containerized network function (CNF) is a network function node that
is implemented and deployed within lightweight, portable containers, which include all
necessary dependencies and configurations. By using containerization technology, CNFs offer
25 increased portability, efficiency, and scalability compared to traditional network functions.
Containers enable CNFs to run consistently across various environments, from on-premises data centres to cloud platforms, while allowing for dynamic scaling and rapid deployment.
[00095] In an exemplary aspect, the Containerized Network Function Component
(CNFC) refers to a subcomponent of a Containerized Network Function (CNF) that performs
30 a specific task or set of tasks within the broader network function. CNFCs are deployed in
18

containers, offering the same advantages as CNFs, which include efficient resource management.

[000106] The initiating Unit [308] at the NPDA microservice [306] initiates the hysteresis
15 process based on the received resource threshold limit exceed event. In an exemplary aspect,
the hysteresis process involves analysing the current resource constraints to ascertain how to adjust the resources to maintain system stability and performance.
[000107] In an exemplary aspect, the resource constraints comprise at least one from
among a central processing unit (CPU), a Random Access Memory (RAM), a storage level.

etc. surpasses a predefined threshold. This predetermined limit acts as an indicator to monitor
resource consumption. When actual usage exceeds this predetermined limit, a signal indicating
10 potential risk of system overload is notified. In an exemplary aspect, the resource threshold
limit exceed event is generated to alert the system about the excessive resource usage, prompting it to initiate corrective actions to manage and balance the load, thereby maintaining optimal system performance and preventing potential failures.
