Techniques and mechanisms for managing a set of data network nodes in a Network Management System (NMS). In some examples, a network orchestrator receives a first service request to trigger a first service transaction to re-configure the set of data nodes in the data network, and trigger, the first service transaction to re-configure the set of data nodes. In some examples, the network orchestrator receives a second service request to trigger a second service transaction to re-configure the set of data nodes. The orchestrator determines whether the second service transaction conflicts with the first service transaction that is currently running. If the second service transaction does not conflict with the first service, it triggers processing the second service. If the second service transaction does conflict with the first service transaction, it delays from processing the second service transaction.

Parallel service invocation in a network

Techniques, methods, and systems for managing a set of data network nodes in a Network Management System (NMS). In some examples, a method may include receiving, at the network orchestrator, a service invocation for a service transaction associated with a transaction object; storing, by the network orchestrator, service metadata as part of the transaction object; determining whether there is a service metadata conflict associated with the transaction object; and in response to determining that there is the service metadata conflict associated with the transaction object, retrying the service transaction; or in response to determining that there is no service metadata conflict associated with the transaction object, applying the service metadata to one or more nodes of the set of data nodes.

Parallel execution of network services with overlapping device configuration

A method of configuring network devices. The method may include, with a network orchestrator, measuring at least one characteristic of a quality of a link between a network device and the network orchestrator during a first measurement window, categorizing the link into a connection type based on the at least one characteristic, and tuning a configuration of the network device based at least in part on the connection type identified by the network orchestrator.
