Abstract
In some examples, a control network for one or more network segments of a network comprises a plurality of controllers each including one or more processors. The plurality of controllers receive service requests that each comprises a definition for a service provided by the network to connect at least two endpoints over a path traversing at least one of the one or more network segments, wherein the control network operates according to a control model by which the plurality of controllers provision services in the one or more network segments to satisfy the service requests. The plurality of controllers dynamically adapt, based on network conditions including the service requests, the control model for the control network. The plurality of controllers provision, according to the adapted control model, services for the service requests.
