Abstract:
Systems and methods for service enhancement discovery in a Software Defined Networking (SDN) network include obtaining network measurements for one or more candidate services in the network; utilizing the network measurements to determine one or more service enhancements for the one or more candidate services; determining a cost and a benefit for each of the service enhancements for the one or more candidate services; and providing the service enhancements for the one or more candidate services based on associated cost and associated benefit of each of the service enhancements.
