Abstract:
A device may receive order information that may identify a network service to be provided, via a service provider network, to a service location associated with a customer. The device may determine context information associated with providing the network service. The context information may be determined based on the order information and may include information associated with a virtual network function (VNF) that is to provide the network service to the service location. The device may determine provisioning details associated with the network service. The device may generate a service request that includes the context information and the provisioning details. The device may identify a cloud resource that is to host the VNF. The device may provide the service request to the cloud resource to cause the VNF to be created and inserted into the service provider network.
