16. © 2016 TM Forum | 16 Catalyst Scenario: Details Use Case 1: Catalogue-driven Network Slice Creation ‒ RaceCar Ltd. orders a new service for supporting the GP event ‒ New slice created by the service provider (includes allocations for public safety, live video streaming to spectator devices, advertising, etc.) Use Case 2: Closed Loop-driven Network Slice Creation ‒ As the event unfolds there is an overload on the live video streaming service (causing metric threshold violations) and a feedback loop gets triggered to create a network slice dedicated to the video feed. This policy was part of the service order. Use Case 3: Catalogue + Policy Network Slice Modification ‒ SmartCity policy mandates a 20% capacity margin maintained for public safety and emergency preparedness. Once network utilization goes over 80% a feedback loop gets triggered to resize the Municipal GP network slice according to policy. This policy was part of the service order too.
