System and method for recommending media content based on actual viewers

A method for managing systems with interrelated microservices with self-assembling and self-configuring microservices includes receiving at a first micro service a service request from a client. A determination is the made whether the first micro service is capable of processing the service request. If the first micro service is capable of processing the service requests, then processing the service request; if the first micro service cannot process the service request then routing the service request to a first stem service. The first stem service determines whether there is a second micro service that can process the service request. If the second micro service that can process the service requests exists, then forwarding the service request to the second micro service for processing. If there is no second micro service that can service the service requests then morphing the first stem service into a micro service that can service the service request.

Enhanced self-assembling and self-configuring microservices

Methods, systems, and apparatuses may provide for managing or operating self-evolving microservices. A method, system, computer readable storage medium, or apparatus may provide for receiving a message associated with a service, wherein the message is for a first microservice that contributes to the implementation of the service, wherein the first microservice comprises a plurality of rules; and subsequent to receiving the message, creating an evolved first microservice using a second rule of a plurality of rules of a second microservice.

Self-evolving microservices

Methods, systems and computer readable media for self-configuration of virtual network functions based on user intent are provided. A network having a plurality of virtual network functions each having a set of initial offering attributes is provided. An added virtual network function having a client and a set of added offering attribute is connected to a first virtual network function from the plurality of virtual network functions. Each initial set of offering attribute and the added offering attribute are advertised to each of the plurality of virtual network functions and the added virtual network function. An aggregate need of the client of the added virtual network function is determined and advertised. A second virtual network function from the plurality of virtual network functions is sought based on the aggregate need of the added virtual network function. The added virtual network function is connected to the second destination virtual network function.

Systems and methods for enhanced intent-based self configuration of virtual network functions

Methods, systems and computer readable media for self-configuration of virtual network functions based on user intent are provided. In a network, a destination with an initial offering having a set of initial offering attributes is provided. A first virtual network function is connected to the destination that is capable of advertising the initial offering. A source having a set of need attributes defined by a user is also provided. The initial offering is advertised, and the source is connected to the first virtual network function. A second virtual network function with an added value is added and a modified offering having a set of modified attributes based on the set of initial offering attributes and the added value is created. The initial offering and the modified offering is advertised to the source. The best offering from the initial offering and modified offering is selected based on the first set of need attributes, the first set of modified offering attributes and the set of initial offering attributes. The first source is then connected to the first best offering.
