Abstract

An exemplary edge compute orchestration system that is communicatively coupled with a set of edge compute nodes in a communication network receives a performance test assignment request generated by a user equipment ('UE') device coupled to the network. In response, the system assigns the UE device to perform a performance test to detect a performance metric for a particular edge compute node selected from the set of edge compute nodes. Subsequently, the system accesses performance data including the performance metric and geolocation data corresponding to the performance metric and representative of a geolocation of the UE device during the performance of the performance test. The system integrates the performance data into a geolocation-indexed performance dataset representative of detected performance metrics, indexed by geolocation for the communication network. Corresponding systems and methods are also disclosed.
