Learning-based service migration in mobile edge computing

Abstract:

Learning-based service migration in mobile edge computing may be provided. First, a service migration policy may be created for a network that includes a plurality of edge clouds configured to provide a service to users. Next, a movement of a user receiving the service from a source edge cloud may be detected. The source edge cloud may be associated with a first area and the detected movement may be from the first area to a second area. Then, the service migration policy may be applied to determine whether to migrate the service for the user from the source edge cloud. In response to determining to migrate the service, a target edge cloud may be identified and the service for the user may be migrated from the source edge cloud to the target edge cloud. The service migration policy may then be updated based on a success of the migration.
