PROVIDING OVERLAY NETWORKS VIA ELASTIC CLOUD NETWORKING
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a device, network infrastructure requirements from a user;
selecting, by the device and based on the network infrastructure requirements, at least one of a virtual core network, a virtual network resource, and a virtual system from resources provided in a cloud computing environment;
enabling, by the device, use of the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system by the user;
receiving, by the device and from the user, traffic destined for the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system; and
providing, by the device, the traffic to the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system.

Abstract
A device receives network infrastructure requirements from a user, and selects, based on the network infrastructure requirements, at least one of a virtual core network, a virtual network resource, and a virtual system from resources provided in a cloud computing environment. The device also enables use of the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system by the user. The device receives, from the user, traffic destined for the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system, and provides the traffic to the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system.

15. A computer-readable medium, comprising:
-
one or more instructions that, when executed by a processor of a device, cause the processor to; receive network infrastructure requirements from a user, select, based on the network infrastructure requirements, at least one of a virtual core network, a virtual network resource, and a virtual system from resources provided in a cloud computing environment, enable use of the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system by the user, receive, from the user, traffic destined for the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system, and provide the traffic to the selected at least one of the virtual core network, the virtual network resource, and the virtual system. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
