Context-aware virtualized control decision support system for providing quality of experience assurance for internet protocol streaming video services

Abstract

Concepts and technologies disclosed herein are directed to context-aware virtualized control decision support system ('DSS') for providing quality of experience ('QoE') assurance for Internet protocol ('IP') streaming video services. A QoE assurance DSS can monitor QoE event and context data to be utilized for QoE assurance analytics, measure QoE performance, perform QoE assurance analytics, and determine whether the QoE assurance analytics indicate that the QoE has been degraded, and if so, construct a fault correlation information model to be utilized for root cause analysis to determine a root cause of the QoE being degraded. The QoE assurance DSS also can determine, based upon the fault correlation information model, whether the root cause of the QoE being degraded is due to a capacity reduction, and if so, the QoE assurance DSS can identify a new network resource for capacity reallocation to accommodate a virtual machine migration.
