Abstract: Provided is a method for managing a network slice instance (NSI) in a communications network. A first performance of the NSI is monitored by a first network slice subnet instance (NSSI) associated with the NSI. A first node obtains, from a second node, a request to monitor a second performance of the NSI. The second performance is of one or more microservices to provide data on a sector of the network. The first node determines, based on one or more requirements of the request, to perform one of: i) initiating (303) a creation of a second NSSI adapted to monitor the second performance based on the requirements, and ii) modifying, based on the requirements, an existing second NSSI, to monitor the second performance. The created or modified second NSSI being: a) independent from, and b) sharable with, the first subnet slice instance.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method performed in a communication network (1). The method comprises receiving a trigger message a) indicating that a situation (4) has occurred. The trigger message comprises situation specific information. The method also comprises, based on the received situation specific information, configuring a service for handling the situation during a period of time until a predefined goal has been achieved. The service includes a plurality of partially-ordered tasks to be performed and a plurality of stakeholders (3). The tasks are parameterized with entities and the stakeholders. The method also comprises, during the period of time, as part of the service, sending updated information c) about the tasks to the stakeholders. The method also comprises, in response to the information sent, receiving input d) about the tasks from the stakeholders.
