The communication system includes a first edge cloud deploying first group of user service nodes (USNs) that form a hash ring corresponding to the first edge cloud and a second edge cloud deploying a second group of USNs that form a hash ring corresponding to the second edge cloud. A USN is configured to provide a service for a terminal device corresponding to the USN. The communication system may further include a mapping system including one or more distributed mapping nodes that store information about the USNs on the first and second edge cloud. The information about a USN includes identification information of the USN and identification information of the terminal device corresponding to the USN. When the mapping system includes a plurality of distributed mapping nodes, the mapping nodes form one or more hash rings corresponding to the mapping system.
