Abstract
Systems and methods provide decentralized MEC compute services. A network device receives, from a user device associated with a user account, an access request for Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) services. The user account includes a MEC service token that indicates parameters for the MEC services. The network device validates a user of the user device to access MEC services for the user device; removes, after the validating, the MEC service token from the first user account; and grants, based on the removing, access to a MEC cluster by the user device, wherein granting access includes granting access according to the parameters.
