EDGE APPLICATION CONTEXT RELOCATION AND REPLICATION

Abstract:

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine, by an edge enabler client of the UE, to trigger generation of a shadow application context to support an application that is associated with an application context and that is served by an edge network device. The UE may determine, by the edge enabler client, to transfer support of the application from the application context to the shadow application context, and transfer, by the edge enabler client, support of the application from the application context to the shadow application context. In some aspects, an application context may be transferred between a UE and an edge network directly, without the shadow application context. Numerous other aspects are provided.
