Abstract
A method and system for load balancing of a Fault Management (FM) microservice (MS) and a Performance Management (PM) MS in a Network Function (NF) are provided. The method includes: determining whether there is a load issue in a first microservice (MS), the first MS being one of the FM and the PM MS; based on determining that there is the load issue, providing data, reported by at least one other MS for the first MS, to a second MS, the second MS being the other of the FM, and PM MS; and processing, by the second MS, the data and reporting, from the second MS to a northbound management system (NBMS), the processed data, wherein the FM MS is configured to receive the event data from the at least one MS, and the PM MS is configured to receive the performance data from the at least one MS.
