[open-edge] [open-edge-attendees] Additional requirements in support of cloudlets.

[Cahill, Joe G]

Hi Patrice,

Sorry I missed the discussion yesterday. Regarding the following:

The UE shall be able to request the instantiation of a MEC application that is being dynamically provisioned by the operator.

Can you clarify if it is the UE or the MEC mgmt. function that makes the request to the MEC platform. We discussed this before and my understanding is that it was the MEC mgmt. function that ultimately makes the request to the MEC platform to instantiate the MEC application. The statement above suggests it is the UE that makes the request but in fact the UE makes the request to the MEC mgmt. function who in turn makes the request to the correct MEC platform.

Best regards
Joe

Subject: Additional requirements in support of cloudlets.

Hi all,

based on the discussion this morning, we will have 2 contributions in support of cloudlets:

  *   an application adding the following requirement (the text needs to be worked on further) to the existing use case (the gaming one, I think): "The UE shall be able to request the instantiation of a MEC application that is being dynamically provisioned by the operator. NOTE: the MEC application will still have to follow the proper authorisation mechanisms."
  *   a new use case about moving applications running in the cloud to MEC system and vice-versa. The requirements themselves will be very high level ("on request from the UE, the MEC system shall be able to move an application running in an external network cloud to a MEC server" and the reverse requirement from MEC server to cloud…). It will be a short paper, just to make sure the concept has been disclosed in the call, and we can update the paper to MEC#3 to make it better :)

I will try to draft the two papers by tomorrow somehow...

Regards,

Patrice
