Apparatus and method for accessing a back-end service
First Claim
1. A device comprising:
- a processing system including a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising;
detecting a request for providing a mobile device with access to an application of a remotely accessible system, wherein the request is received by a first network element by way of a first logical network connection, wherein the first logical network connection is between the first network element in local communication with the remotely accessible system and a second network element in local communication with a gateway of a packet core of a mobile network;
forwarding the request to the remotely accessible system; and
facilitating delivery of a service of the remotely accessible system to the mobile device.

Abstract
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a first network element in local communication with a gateway of a core network portion of a mobility network. Establishment of a first logical network connection is facilitated between the first network element and a second network element in local communication with a remotely accessible system, such as a back-end system of an enterprise data center or cloud service provider. A request from a mobile device serviced by the mobility network is detected for access to a service of the remotely accessible system. The request and/or a translation of the request is forwarded to the second network element by way of the first logical network connection. The second network element forwards the translated request to the remotely accessible system. Other embodiments are disclosed.
