Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods for a network framework for managing network elements (NEs) of a wireless/cellular and wireline network. The framework enables the scaling of a quantity, diversity and availability of NEs on/within a network via secure, efficient handling of multiple connectivity protocols, management protocols and/or NE data models. The framework can operate to provide a newly configured microservice architecture for the performance of NE management that is based on the specifics of NE types and/or NE protocols. Such architecture can operate as a collection (e.g., cluster) of microservices (or components) that can be independently scaled and can enable services to communicate with one another at the service level. The disclosed framework provides customized service technologies for each component/service in a configured manner so as to cluster services to specific needs/requests of each NE.
