Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, analyzing content flow data in a communication network to obtain flow statistics; the statistics are aggregated to construct a model of the content flow based on the aggregated flow statistics. Operations of network nodes are predicted based on the model; a content delivery path in the communication network is identified. A quality of service is detected for network nodes on the content delivery path. The detected quality of service is compared with a predicted quality of service based on the model; a network anomaly is detected based on the comparing. The content flow on the content delivery path is adjusted responsive to detection of the network anomaly. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 1):
A method, comprising:\n obtaining, by a processing system including a processor, a first model for operation of a network component to be deployed on a communication network; analyzing, by the processing system, operation of the network component on the communication network according to the first model, prior to deployment of the network component on the communication network; predicting, by the processing system, performance of the network component in accordance with the analyzing; obtaining, by the processing system, flow statistics regarding a content flow in the communication network, wherein the communication network includes the network component deployed as a network node; constructing, by the processing system, a second model of the content flow based on the flow statistics; detecting, by the processing system, a quality of service for each of a plurality of network nodes on a content delivery path, wherein the plurality of network nodes on the content delivery path comprise the network component; comparing, by the processing system, the detected quality of service with a predicted quality of service based on the second model; and adjusting, by the processing system, the content flow on the content delivery path responsive to detection of a network anomaly based on the comparing, wherein the adjusting the content flow comprises modifying the content delivery path by start-up of a first device to add a first network node, shutdown of a second device to remove a second network node, or a combination thereof.
