The present disclosure relates to an apparatus, a method, and a computer program for storing metadata in a record and/or using metadata stored in the record.
A communication system can be seen as a facility that enables communication sessions between two or more entities such as user terminals, base stations/access points and/or other nodes by providing carriers between the various entities involved in the communications path. A communication system can be provided for example by means of a communication network and one or more compatible communication devices. The communication sessions may comprise, for example, communication of data for carrying communications such as voice, electronic mail (email), text message, multimedia and/or content data and so on. Non-limiting examples of services provided comprise two-way or multi-way calls, data communication or multimedia services and access to a data network system, such as the Internet. In a wireless communication system at least a part of a communication session between at least two stations occurs over a wireless link.
A user can access the communication system by means of an appropriate communication device or terminal. A communication device of a user is often referred to as user equipment (UE) or user device. A communication device is provided with an appropriate signal receiving and transmitting apparatus for enabling communications, for example enabling access to a communication network or communications directly with other users. The communication device may access a carrier provided by a station or access point and transmit and/or receive communications on the carrier.
The communication system and associated devices typically operate in accordance with a required standard or specification which sets out what the various entities associated with the system are permitted to do and how that should be achieved. Communication protocols and/or parameters which shall be used for the connection are also typically defined. One example of a communications system is UTRAN (3G radio). Another example of an architecture that is known as the long-term evolution (LTE) or the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) radio-access technology. Another example communication system is so called 5G radio or new radio (NR) access technology.

In the following certain embodiments are explained with reference to mobile communication devices capable of communication via a wireless cellular system and mobile communication systems serving such mobile communication devices. Before explaining in detail the exemplifying embodiments, certain general principles of a wireless communication system, access systems thereof, and mobile communication devices are briefly explained with reference to
The 5G (R)AN may comprise one or more gNodeB (gNB) distributed unit functions connected to one or more gNodeB (gNB) centralized unit functions.
The 5G may be used for mobile access or for fixed access. The 5GC may comprise an access management function (AMF), a session management function (SMF), an authentication server function (AUSF), a user data management (UDM), a user plane function (UPF) and/or a network exposure function (NEF). Although not illustrated the 5GC may comprise other network functions (NF), such as an unstructured data storage function (UDSF).
The terminal 300 may receive signals over an air or radio interface 307 via appropriate apparatus for receiving and may transmit signals via appropriate apparatus for transmitting radio signals. In
The terminal 300 may be provided with at least one processor 301, at least one memory ROM 302a, at least one RAM 302b and other possible components 303 for use in software and hardware aided execution of tasks it is designed to perform, including control of access to and communications with access systems and other communication devices. The at least one processor 301 is coupled to the RAM 302a and the ROM 211b. The at least one processor 301 may be configured to execute an appropriate software code 308.

One or more aspect of this disclosure relate to a Nudsf_DataRepository service application programming interface (API). The Nudsf_DataRepository service API is standardized in Rel-16 and defines how UDSF service consumers may store and retrieve unstructured data in a UDSF.
As per TS 29.598 data in a UDSF may be placed in records. Each record may have a record identifier (recordId). Each record may correspond for example to a UE. Each record may comprise none, one or more blocks. For example, a record may comprise a mobility management block, a session management block or other. Each block may comprise a content with arbitrary structure. The content and structure of the block(s) is not known by the UDSF. Additionally, each record may comprise RecordMeta (i.e. record metadata).
Storage and retrieval of records in the UDSF can be very efficient when the recordId is known by the UDSF service consumer. However, in many cases the recordId is not known by the UDSF service consumer (e.g. a Stateless NF having to serve a request) and the NF may have to first perform a search in the UDSF for records based on GET query parameters that are applied as RecordMeta filters (RecordMeta information element (IE). RecordMeta filters are based on tags. A tag may comprise a tag name and one or more tag values with no specific structure which does not facilitate efficient searches.
In step 1, the NF service consumer (any NF) sends a GET request to a record resource with the RecordMeta filters.
In step 2a, on success, the UDSF responds with “200 OK” with the message body containing the RecordSearchResult.
In step 2b, if the UDSF is not able to return any record for the given RecordMeta filters, the HTTP status code “204 No Content” is returned.
On failure, the appropriate HTTP status code indicating the error may be returned and appropriate additional error information may be returned in the GET response body.
RecordMeta may comprise tags attributes. Tags is a map between a tag name and one or more tag values. The tag name is a unique string name that is the primary key of the map. The one or more tag values may be an array of string values.
RecordMeta may comprise a time to live (ttl) timer attribute. The ttl refers to the lifetime of the record. After the expiry of the ttl timer the record may be deleted.
RecordMeta may comprise a callbackReference attribute. The callbackReference comprises a URI where the NF Service Consumer may receive notification on the expiry of the ttl timer.
A NF may have three possible levels of statelessness.
A NF may be a stateless NF. UE state information is pulled by the NF from the UDSF for the duration of a transaction only (e.g. PCF).
A NF may be state efficient NF. UE state information may be pulled by the NF from the UDSF and kept there during periods of high UE activity, cached for a few seconds or minutes. The UE state information may be stored by the NF in the UDSF at the end of a certain procedure (e.g. AMF or SMF).
A NF may be a stateful NF. UE state information may be stored permanently in the NF (e.g. UDR).
Stateless NFs or state efficient NFs operating as a set of NFs in case of NF failure may not know the RecordId of the relevant Record where the data required to complete an operation is stored and may have to fetch data stored in UDSF based on various search criterions. The criterion may be based on whatever is available by a request that triggered the operation or the background activity (e.g. subscriber permanent identifier (SUPI), global unique temporary identifier (GSPI), timer expiration, single-network slice selection assistance information (S-NSSAI) or other).
A UDSF realm or storage may contain a very large number of records. Thus, traversing all the records in the whole realm or storage to resolve search requests may require a lot of computing resources.
For example, without indexing a UDSF serving 25 million UEs for a state efficient AMF set may perform 40 thousand searches/sec. Assuming a low value of only 1 Idle/Connected transition every 10 min per UE, the UDSF may perform 1 trillion 5G global unique temporary identifier (5G-GUTI) checks/sec.
Indexes or similar constructs may be used to perform efficient searches based on RecordMeta However, indexes may also make record writes and updates in UDSF more expensive while certain tags in the RecordMeta may anyhow not be planned to be used as search criterions. Certain tags in the RecordMeta be for example intended to be used only to produce aggregate counters.
Moreover, there is currently no solution in the standards for stateless NF service consumers to monitor timers and handle timer expiration in records stored in the UDSF. It is assumed to be solved in a proprietary manner. One possible approach is to store time stamp information in the blocks or RecordMeta of the records stored in the UDSF and perform periodic polling. However, with this approach the timer may have already expired by the time a context is retrieved.
One or more aspects of this disclosure enhance the UDSF API to allow a NF service consumer to convey information to the UDSF on how to categorize each tag in the RecordMeta and accordingly optimize the way records are stored and searched for.
One or more aspects of this disclosure enhance the UDSF API so that timers may be stored in the UDSF and the NF service consumer may be notified upon expiration of the timers or may use an efficient mechanism to poll for expired timers.
Here are certain examples where Searches based on RecordMeta tags may need to be performed.
For example, a NF may receive a request from a RAN of a UE identified by its 5G temporary mobile subscriber identifier (5G STMSI). In order to serve the request the NF must retrieve the UE context thus it may send a search query to a UDSF to obtain the record of the UE using the 5G TMSI as the search criterion. The NF may receive the record of the UE from the UDSF and further process the request.
The NF may receive a request from a UDM or a UE identified by its SUPI. In this case the NF may send a search query to the UDSF to obtain the record of the UE using the SUPI as the search criterion. The NF may receive the record of the UE from the UDSF and further process the request.
The NF may receive a request from an OAM to obtain the number of UEs registered to a specific slice (S-NSSAI). The NF may send a search query to the UDSF to obtain the number of records where the given slice is included in the relevant metadata tag and may prepare a report for the OAM.
Another example is when the NF (e.g. AMF) may need to run a background activity to purge stale UEs. In order to complete this operation the NF may periodically need to send a search query to the UDSF to identify and retrieve the records of UEs for which a timer, for example a reachability timer, has expired.
Rel-16 TS.29.598 has defined a metadata structure for records (RecordMeta IE) however the UDSF does not have the information required to optimize searches based on metadata tag filtering.
Indexes and stored procedures are used in other database structures but there is no standardized API to create such constructs in the UDSF.
RecordMeta IEs contain “ttl” IE. However, this is a single timer with a specific usage as it refers to the lifetime of the record (i.e. after the expiration the record is deleted) and cannot be used for generic call processing related purposes.
One or more aspects of the disclosure relate to categorizing the RecordMeta tags based on their use and enhance the UDSF API so that a NF service consumer may convey that categorization to the UDSF in a standardized manner.
One or more aspects of the disclosure relate to implementing timers with stateless NF service consumers that use UDSF for backend storage.
To enable support for timer handling with stateless NFs the following principles are proposed. A NF may store timers in the UDSF. In order to determine and act on expired timers, the NF or NF in a same set of NF may poll the UDSF for expired timers. Alternatively, the UDSF may notify the NF that last updated the context for expired timers.
In order to facilitate efficient search to determine records based on expired timers, it is proposed to introduce a search key based on expired timers.
For optimized search, each tag belonging to the RecordMeta “tags” IE (TS 29.598) may be associated with a key type. The key type may be one of the following key types.
A unique type: The tag may be used for search and may result at most in one matching record. For example, the tag may correspond to a SUPI, subscription concealed identifier (SUCI), a generic public subscription identifier (GPSI), 5G-GUTI, 5G S-TMSI, NG application protocol identifier (NGAP-ID) of a UE or other.
A search type: The tag may be used for search and may result in multiple matching records. For example, the tag may correspond to a NF service consumer set identifier and may be used to determine the UE(s) served by the NF service consumer set or a tracking area code and may be used to determine the UE(s) located in a tracking area.
A sum type: The tag may be used for count search only. For example, the tag may correspond to a S-NSSAI and may be used to determine a number of UEs registered to a specific slice
A search-sum type: The tag may be a combination of the two previous tags and can be used for count searches but also search that may result in multiple matching records. For example, the tag may correspond to a S-NSSAI and may be used to determine a number of UEs registered to a specific slice in order to report a relevant counter but also to acquire all the UEs in that S-NSSAI so as to update their connection status when the slice is removed from the network.
A timer search Type: The tag may correspond to a timer and may be used to search for records, for example to search for record where the timer has expired.
A timer callback type: The tag may correspond to a timer but cannot be used to search for records, for example to search for record where the timer has expired. However, upon expiry of the timer the UDSF sends a notification to a given callback URI.
Non-search type: The tag may not be used to search for records. For example, the tag name and the tag value correspond to a version of an encoded block blob that is meaningful only for the UDSF Service consumer.
Tags of the unique key type and search key type may have a “sort” attribute. That may be used when searches based on comparison operators “GT” “GTE”, “LT”, or “LTE” are expected (i.e. logically ordered entries).
The Enumeration ComparisonOperator IE may be extended with the addition of an “EXP” operator which may be used to search for records based on whether tags of a timer search key type correspond to expired timers. The UDSF may create an index which maps to all the records with tags of a timer search key type relating to expired timers (e.g. current date time>=expire dateTime).
The mapping of a tag name to a key type along with other attributes, such as a format of a tag value, an indication of whether a tag is optional or mandatory, a default value when the tag is optional or a cardinality may be described in a new resource named MetaSchema (i.e. metadata schema). The MetaSchema may be stored in the UDSF and may be referenced by the RecordMeta of a record when the RecordMeta is stored in the UDSF.
Usage of the MetaSchema is optional. In case it is not stored on the UDSF, the existing Rel-16 API may be used by the UDSF for (unoptimized) searches and proprietary timer implementation.
The Nudsf_DataRepository API may be enhanced to support the MetaSchema. The MetaSchema is stored in a new MetaSchema resource in the nudsfNudsf-dr API structure.
When Records intend to refer to a MetaSchema the MetaSchema are first uploaded on the UDSF. The MetaSchema describes the tags in a RecordMeta and their categorization. The MetaSchema does not describe the block(s) content and/or structure.
The UDSF may use the MetaSchema to create indexes, counters, stored procedures, timers or other in order to optimize searches filtered on the tags.
When records are stored in the UDSF along with the blocks, the RecordMeta may include a reference to the relevant MetaSchema.
The MetaSchema is identified by the SchemaId identifier. Search queries include the SchemaId as a new optional query parameter along with the tag name. When included, the search is limited to records which have the given schemaId value stored in their RecordMeta
Tags of the timer search key type and timer callback key type have tag values with a date time format. Search queries with tags of the timer search key type may comprise the “EXP” ComparisonOperator.
Search queries with tags of the non-search key type or timer callback key type may be rejected.
Searches queries based on the “GT” “GTE”, “LT”, and “LTE” ComparisonOperator may be rejected if the tag values are not sorted.
When a tag of the timer callback key type correspond to an expired timer, the UDSF send a notification message to the callback URI provided in the RecordMeta.
A NF service consumer that wants to store a record including a RecordMeta referring to a MetsSchema in order to leverage one or more of the above aspects may first check whether the UDSF already stores the MetaSchema of the RecordMeta included in the record to be stored. If the MetaSchema is not stored in the UDSF the UDSF service consumer first uploads the MetaSchema on the UDSF.
The NF service consumer may send a request to the UDSF to determine if the UDSF stores a MetaSchema with a given SchemaId. The NF service consumer may receive an indication from the UDSF that the UDSF does not store the MetaSchema with the SchemaId.
If the MetaSchema is not stored in the UDSF, the NF may send a request to the UDSF to store a MetaSchema which is identified by the SchemaId. The request may comprise the MetaSchema. The MetaSchema may comprise the SchemaId and an array that comprises at least one tag type with at least one attribute. The at least one attribute comprise a tag name, a format of a tag value, an indication of a key type, an indication whether the tag is optional or mandatory, a default value when the tag is optional, a cardinality minimum, a cardinality maximum, a sort indication or other.
In an example, the MetaSchema may comprise a tag type indicating that a RecordMeta comprises a tag corresponding to a SUPI comprising a tag name “SUPI”, a tag value with a format “string” and a key type “unique type”.
In an example, the MetaSchema may comprise a tag type indicating that a RecordMeta may comprise a tag corresponding to a timer comprising a tag name “PurgeTimer”, a tag value with a format “DateTime” and a key type “timer search type”. The UDSF may mark the record associated with the RecordMeta as expired when the timer expires.
In an example, the MetaSchema may comprise a tag type indicating that a RecordMeta may comprise a tag corresponding to a timer comprising a tag name “CloseCDRTimer”, a tag value with a format “DateTime” and a key type “timer Callback type” indicating that the UDSF sends a notification to the given callback URI when the timer expires.
In an example, the MetaSchema may comprise a tag type indicating that a RecordMeta may comprise a tag corresponding to an internal NF service consumer version of an encoded block blob comprising a tag name “Gzip”, a tag value with a format “Boolean”, a key type “non-search type” and a default tag value “no”. The UDSF may not use the tag for searches.
After the MetaSchema has been uploaded to the UDSF, the NF can start storing records 30 including a reference to the MetaSchema the RecordMeta abides by. In case the RecordMeta does not abide by the MetaSchema or the MetaSchema is unknown to the UDSF, the UDSF responds with an appropriate error message.
The NF service consumer may discover whether the UDSF can support the functionality described above via the supported features negotiation mechanism as specified in subclause 6.6.2 of 3GPP TS 29.500 (functionality will be defined as a new Feature (e.g. “MetaSchema) in 29.598).
The TagName attribute may be a unique key tag name used in the tag name/values pairs in a RecordMeta tags attribute.
The key type attribute may be a string describing a key type among the unique key type, the search key type, the sum key type, the search sum key type, the timer search key type, the callback timer key type and the non-search key type.
The sort attribute may be a Boolean relevant for key types unique key type and search key type.
The presence attribute may be a Boolean where True indicates that a tag is mandatory and False indicates that a tag is optional.
The cardinality min attribute may be a positive integer.
The cardinality max attribute may be a positive integer greater than the cardinality min.
The default value may be an object. The default value may be mandatory when the presence is optional.
A NF A may send a request to store a record to the UDSF including a block and RecordMeta with tags complying with the MetaSchema identified by the SchemaId. The UDSF sends a response indicating that the record was stored.
The NF A may send another request to store a record including a block and RecordMeta. with tags not complying with the MetaSchema identified by the SchemaId (e.g. a tag that is mandatory is missing). In that case the UDSF does not store the record but sends a response with an appropriate Error code indicating that the UDSF did not store the record.
Once the records are stored, searches can be efficiently retrieved as UDSF has internally organized the data accordingly.
Searches on tags that are not supported by the defined tag type in the MetaSchema are rejected by the UDSF.
NF A, B and C may be part of a set of NFs.
The NF A may send a search query comprising a SchemaId (e.g. 1234), a tag name (e.g. SUPI) and a tag value. The UDSF may have created an index based on the tag name and therefore may retrieve a matching record efficiently. The NF service consumer A accordingly receives the matching record from the UDSF.
The NF A may send a search query comprising a SchemaId (e.g. 1234), a tag name (e.g. PurgeTimer) and a comparison operator (EXP). The UDSF may identify one or more matching records where a tag value associated with the tag name has expired. The NF service consumer B receives the one or more matching records from the UDSF.
The NF B may send a search query comprising a SchemaId (e.g. 1234), a tag name (e.g. NSSAI) and a tag value. The UDSF may identify a number of one or more matching records where a tag value associated with the tag name is equal to the tag value in the request. The NF B may receive the number of the one or more matching records from the UDSF.
The NF may send a search query comprising a SchemaId (e.g. 1234), a tag name (e.g. GZIP) and a tag value (yes). The UDSF may reject the search query. The NF service consumer C may not receive any matching records from the UDSF.
A NF A may send a request to store a record to the UDSF with a block and RecordMeta. with tags complying with tagTypes of the MetaSchema identified by the SchemaId. One of the tags may be of the callback timer type. This tag may have a tag name (e.g. CloseCDRTimer) a tag value (e.g. 2020-08-12 01:10:30) and a callback URI. The UDSF stores the record and sends an appropriate success response.
Upon expiry of the callback timer as indicated by its tag value (2020-08-12 01:10:30), the UDSF sends a notification to the given callback URI.
The NF may be able to also update the MetaSchema.
Backwards compatible changes to the MetaSchema may be applied even when records referencing the MetaSchema exist in the UDSF. Example of Backwards compatible changes to a MetaSchema is adding an optional tag with default value or increasing the max cardinality of a tag. In such a case the NF may update the MetaSchema (e.g. via PUT/PATCH commands) without having to first migrate the RecordMeta of the records.
Backwards incompatible changes to the MetaSchema may not be applied when records referencing to that MetaSchema exist in the UDSF. In that case the NF service consumer is responsible to migrate and/or convert the RecordMeta.
A possible migration procedure may be as follows.
The NF service consumer may store a new MetaSchema with a new MetaSchema name or new SchemaId to the UDSF. The old MetaSchema is not yet deleted or updated.
Whenever the NF service consumer stores a new record or updates an existing record to the UDSF the NF that complies to the new RecordMeta format and uses the new MetaSchema as reference.
For the period until all Records are migrated to the new MetaSchema the UDSF consumers must perform search with both the old Metaschema and new Metaschema. When all records are migrated to the new MetaSchema, searches may be performed with only the new MetaSchema and the old MetaSchema can be deleted.
One or more aspects of the disclosure optimize searches by enabling the UDSF to decide when indexes, timers or stored procedures should be used for a RecordMeta tags (efficiency).
One or more aspects of the disclosure optimize organization of RecordMeta tags and reduce search response time (improved latency)
One or more aspects of the disclosure standardize the MetaSchema definition API and allows multivendor UDSF/NF service consumer deployments (interoperability) One or more aspects of the disclosure organize the data within the UDSF considering also the MetaSchema and search criteria.
One or more aspects of the disclosure provide an interoperable solution for the timer which may be essential for a stateless/state-efficient NF.
