Abstract:
A cloud services composition system allows customers to interactively create service constructs from network function virtualization resources. The network function virtualization primitives are modeled using a standard modeling language. An expert system suggests network function virtualization resources for use in the service construct, based on an expert system learning algorithm. The customer uses a graphical user interface to interconnect the resources and create the service construct. The process may involve collaboration with the network provider. The resulting construct is validated for use in a communications network.

Claim (Index 1):
A method, comprising:\n by a processing system, receiving from a user equipment a functional description of a requested network service in a communications network, the communications network comprising a plurality of virtualized network function resources; performing an analysis of the functional description of the requested network service by a learning algorithm executed by the processing system and trained using prior customer service creation requests, the learning algorithm using a plurality of resource models describing behaviors of the virtualized network function resources; based on the analysis of the functional description of the requested network service, transmitting to the user equipment a suggested subset of the virtualized network function resources for use in composing the requested network service; providing a collaborative workspace for composing the requested network service, the collaborative workspace permitting a user of the user equipment and personnel of a provider of the communications network to interact to define an arrangement of the suggested subset of the virtualized network function resources including representations of interconnections among the virtualized network function resources, the arrangement being defined using the learning algorithm; validating the arrangement of the suggested subset of the virtualized network function resources as representing a feasible service composition for deployment in the communications network.
