Abstract
A processing system including at least one processor may receive a request from a client device for a deployment of a client service to a mobile edge infrastructure of a telecommunication network, the mobile edge infrastructure including host devices, and determine at least one requirement for the client service, including at least one of: a distance requirement, comprising a maximum distance between the client device and a candidate host device for deploying the service, or a latency requirement, comprising a maximum latency between the client device and the candidate host device for deploying the service. The processing system may further determine at least one available host device of the mobile edge infrastructure that meets the requirements, select a host device from among the at least one available host device to run the client service, and instruct the client device to connect to the host device that is selected.
