Yup!!… thanks Sreeni..thats what I was describing - you have a nice slide for it

Edge nodes need to participate in that service bus model. It makes the discovery process and provisioning of applications to Edge nodes a lot easier and doesn’t require yet another discovery protocol… This is the work best suited for Orchestrators - So perhaps ONAP

The network maps the available services and shows them to UE via a catalog or another mechanism. The UE decides to either attach to that service or sign up for push notifications. So

If there are multiple Edge nodes that can serve the request then based on the infra policy the “closest” edge node can service it.. that would be an infra/orchestration rule as to which Edge node serves that request - the policy defined in the orchestration engine can take into account things such as latency, capacity etc etc.
