Abstract
A system comprises a virtualized network function (VNF) instantiation method, a network function virtualization (NFV) orchestrator (NFVO), a virtualized infrastructure manager (VIM), a VNF manager (VNFM), and a system where when a VNF instance for implementing a function of a multi-access edge application is deployed on an edge cloud using an NFV management and orchestration (NFV-MANO) system structure framework, a location of the VNF instance for implementing the application is no longer determined according to an affinity/anti-affinity rule. Instead, a mapping relationship between a different virtual resource location area on the edge cloud and a quality of service (QoS) attribute is established, so that a virtual resource location area that meets a QoS attribute of a VNF can be dynamically matched for the VNF based on the QoS attribute of the VNF.
