Patent attributes
In an embodiment, a computer implemented method and architecture for managing data in mobile communication network which includes core and access components. This embodiment performs specialized data handling through processing nodes referred as Storage Retention and Intelligent Function (SRIF) nodes, an evaluation operation on control plane and user plane data received from the mobile communication network. This action determines whether any portion of the data needs intelligent processing and applies knowledge extraction algorithm for build-up retention or policy decision. As responsive to the evaluation operation, the SRIF nodes apply decisions on data or enable network nodes to apply data processing rules. The architecture of SRIF is hierarchical comprising end node as serving node, middle node as load balancing node providing flexibility, and central node as the brain. The central node performs data processing based on pre-defined rules or algorithms developed by analyzing data or by applying Machine learning.
