In an approach to improve service chain node adequacy, embodiments utilize fifth-generation technology standard (5G) for broadband cellular networks architecture for creating relevant network slices for dedicated business processes, to ensure that each node within the network slice has stabilized operations. Embodiments employ an optimization technique, maximize a model of network adequacy to ensure there is a predetermined amount of adequacy to handle a request, and introduce the model for pre-processor without impacting existing functionality. Embodiments apply one or more constraints to one or more systems to balance the one or more queues; and implement a rapid packet delivery to a subsequent entity comprising decongested queues.

Computer-based service chain node adequacy framework

Setting a primary server within a business density cluster when the business density location changes. A new primary edge provisioning server replaces a current primary edge provisioning server when the business density cluster is determined not to include the current primary edge provisioning server. An edge provisioning framework handles the associations and dissociations of the edge network(s) to build the new primary server within the business density cluster. The former primary server is respawned as a new secondary node to the new primary server.

Provisioning edge resources based on changes in business density location

Provisioning business functions is provided. A runtime binary activation code is sent to a nodal edge server that has a needed runtime binary for a set of edge devices to perform a business function. A secure shell protocol connection with root operating system access is established to the nodal edge server that has the needed runtime binary to execute the runtime binary activation code.

Provisioning business function on edge

Runtime binary migration is provided. A slice of a 5G network is provisioned based on time period and bandwidth requirements in accordance with a service level agreement corresponding to a customer requesting performance of a business function transaction. A runtime binary for invoking the slice of the 5G network is migrated to a nodal edge server for a set of edge devices associated with the nodal edge server to perform the business function transaction using the slice of the 5G network.

Sequential bidirectional migration in an edge environment

Edge service deployment with network slice invocation is provided, which includes obtaining one or more service-related parameters for network slice invocation to support an edge service instance, and requesting a network slice from a network based on the obtained one or more service-related parameters. The requesting from the network is via a collaboration platform. Further, the edge service deployment and network slice invocation includes receiving from the network, based on requesting of the network slice, network slice invocation codes, and initiating activating of the edge service instance over the network slice of the network using the network slice invocation codes.
