Abstract
Adaptation of a network is disclosed. A proposed adaptation, determined by a sub-network component of the network based on an intended effect to the sub-network, can be received by a network-level arbitration component. The network-level arbitration component can determine if the proposed adaptation satisfies a rule based on predicted results on the network from implementing the proposed adaptation. Where the rule is satisfied the adaptation can be implemented. A result of the implementation can be compared to the predicted results to determine if the network should be reverted to a pre-implementation state. In an aspect, the network-level arbitration component can be a core-network component. In an embodiment, the network-level arbitration component can be a virtualized component on a network provider server, a cloud server, etc.
