Popis: This paper presents a novel network slicing management and orchestration architectural framework. A brief description of business scenarios and potential customers of network slicing is provided, illustrating the need for ordering network services with very different requirements. Based on specific customer goals (of ordering and building an end-to-end network slice instance) and other requirements gathered from industry and standardization associations, a solution is proposed enabling the automation of end-to-end network slice management and orchestration in multiple resource domains. This architecture distinguishes between two main design time and runtime components: Network Slice Design and Multi-Domain Orchestrator, belonging to different competence service areas with different players in these domains, and proposes the required interfaces and data structures between these components.
