Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 6:
7. A system comprising:
one or more processing devices communicatively coupled to memory communicatively coupled with and readable by the one or more processing devices and having stored therein processor-readable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processing devices, configure the system to perform operations comprising:
processing one or more cellular network service requests from an external entity distinct from an entity operating a cellular network and a cellular network control system, the one or more cellular network service requests indicating one or more service location identifiers requested by the external entity;
processing data from one or more data sources, at least some of the data comprising indicia of data characteristics corresponding to one or more network functions, one or more network services, and/or one or more other data sources;
analyzing the indicia of the data characteristics to create or develop a data model corresponding to the one or more cellular network service requests, wherein the indicia of the data characteristics are collected over time;
creating configuration specifications to instantiate a network slice and/or one or more network services corresponding to the network slice based at least in part on the data model, the network slice and/or the one or more network services corresponding to the network slice conforming to the one or more service location identifiers; and
causing instantiation of the network slice and/or the one or more network services corresponding to the network slice in accordance with the configuration specifications with data services provided to user equipment of the external entity, the cellular network consequently providing the data services to the user equipment of the external entity.
