The present disclosure relates to devices, methods, and systems for subscriber identification module (SIM) management for a private mobile network. The methods and systems may include a private mobile network service on a cloud computing system. Users of the cloud computing system may use the private mobile network service to create a private mobile network. The private mobile network service may facilitate the creation of the private mobile network by providing interfaces for secure communications with the users of the cloud computing system, the SIM service partners, and the packet core partners. The mobile network service may also manage the SIM cards for the private mobile networks by coordinating the transmission of the SIM operation details for the SIM cards.

A method for providing a managed networking service for a cloud computing system enables users to consume managed virtualized network functions (VNFs) at edge locations. The method includes registering a plurality of third-party vendors for the managed networking service. The plurality of third-party vendors provide a plurality of VNFs for the managed networking service. The method also includes receiving user input from a user of the cloud computing system. The user input includes a request to deploy the plurality of VNFs at an edge location. The plurality of VNFs can be provided by different third-party vendors through the managed networking service. The method also includes causing the plurality of VNFs to be deployed on an edge device that is located at the edge location. The plurality of VNFs can be represented as logical entities in a database that is utilized by the managed networking service.
