Claim 18:
19. A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
with regard to a query associated with a device, determining a group of candidate node devices from a group of node devices based on a network address space associated with a network address associated with the device and respective first network addresses associated with respective node devices of the group of node devices;
from a group of candidate node devices, determining a group of available candidate node devices that is able to process the query associated with the device and relating to a service based on a service type of the service, and respective operational statuses of respective candidate node devices of the group of candidate node devices, wherein the group of available candidate node devices comprises respective available candidate node devices comprising a first available candidate node device and a second available candidate node device, and wherein some of the respective first network addresses are respective second network addresses associated with the respective available candidate node devices;
determining respective ranking scores associated with the respective second network addresses associated with the respective available candidate node devices of the group of available candidate node devices based on respective bandwidths associated with the respective available candidate node devices, wherein the respective second network addresses comprise a first network address and a second network address associated with the first available candidate node device and a third network address associated with the second available candidate node device, and wherein a first ranking score associated with the first network address and a second ranking score associated with the second network address are higher than a third ranking score associated with the third network address based on determining that a combined bandwidth associated with the first network address and the second network address is higher than a bandwidth associated with the third network address; and
determining an available candidate node device of the group of available candidate node devices that is to process the query based on the respective ranking scores and a defined service performance criterion associated with the group of available candidate node devices.
