Abstract

Particular embodiments may receive a request to perform a task to a core network by a user device via an access point. The user device may be authenticated by the core network which comprises one or more network functionality components, and each of the one or more network functionality components may be decomposed into multiple service types. The core network may identify a sequence of a service instances based on the task. Each of the service instances may belong to one of the multiple decomposed service types. The sequence of service instances may be scheduled for deployment to accomplish the task by the core network. The core network may deploy the sequence of the service instances to one or more server machines of the core network.
