Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, computer program products, and systems for fulfilling a service chain request. Embodiments of the present invention can be used to collect network data of a plurality of instances of services and connections between the plurality of instances of services and redefine service chains to direct flow to an alternative instance of a service responsive to determining that an instance of a service in a service chain has become inaccessible. Embodiments of the present invention can be used to fulfill a service chain request and avoid one or more instances of services (and/or connections there between) that could cause a delay between transmitting data packets through the service chain.

Claim (Index 8):
A computer program product for fulfilling a service chain request, the computer program product comprising:\n one or more computer readable storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:\n program instructions to receive a service chain request requiring a first service chain; and \n program instructions to, responsive to determining that an instance of a service in the first service chain is inaccessible, dynamically redefine the first service chain to direct flow to an alternative instance of the service.
