Description

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OPTIMISING AVAILABILITY OF AN UPDATED DATA AT A SECONDARY SITE FIELD OF INVENTION [0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to the field of wireless communication systems. More particularly, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to method and system for optimising availability of an updated data at a secondary site. BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE [0002] The following description of related art is intended to provide background information pertaining to the field of the disclosure. This section may include certain aspects of the art that may be related to various features of the present disclosure. However, it should be appreciated that this section be used only to enhance the understanding of the reader with respect to the present disclosure, and not as admissions of prior art. [0003] Wireless communication technology has rapidly evolved over the past few decades, with each generation bringing significant improvements and advancements. The first generation of wireless communication technology was based on analog technology and offered only voice services. However, with the advent of the second-generation (2G) technology, digital communication and data services became possible, and text messaging was introduced. The third generation (3G) technology marked the introduction of high-speed internet access, mobile video calling, and location-based services. The fourth generation (4G) technology revolutionized wireless communication with faster data speeds, better network coverage, and improved security. Currently, the fifth generation (5G) technology is being deployed, promising even faster data speeds, low latency, and the ability to connect multiple devices simultaneously. With each generation, wireless communication technology has become more advanced, sophisticated, and capable of delivering more services to its users. [0004] As used herein, NEF refers to a Network Exposure Function which is considered to be an essential element of the core 5G network. The NEF is located between the 5G core network and external third-party application functionaries (AFs) and is responsible for managing the external open network data. In addition, all external applications that want to access the internal data of the 5G core shall pass through the NEF for security of data. [0005] When a User Equipment (UE) is connected to an Access & Mobility Management Function (AMF), a session gets created and information about the same is transmitted to a NEF site cluster. During communication, when there is a complete failure of the NEF site cluster, in order to restore the communication handled by such NEF site cluster, the NEF site cluster has to be restarted in order to allow the communication to happen which is a time taking process. [0006] Further, over the period of time various solutions have been developed to improve the performance of communication devices and to provide data availability to a Disaster Recovery (DR) Site to allow communication to run smoothly in case a Geo-Redundant (GR) Site is in a shutdown state or is not working properly. However, there are certain challenges with existing solutions. The existing solutions are time-inefficient solutions that also hamper user experience and lead to delayed communication. Further, the existing solutions involve inefficient utilization of the resources. [0007] Thus, there exists an imperative need in the art to provide the data availability to the Disaster Recovery (DR) Site to allow communication to run smoothly in case the Geo-Redundant (GR) Site is in a shut-down state or is not working properly, which the present disclosure aims to address. OBJECTS OF THE DISCLOSURE [0008] Some of the objects of the present disclosure, which at least one embodiment disclosed herein satisfies are listed herein below. [0009] It is an object of the present disclosure to provide a method and system for optimising availability of an updated data at a secondary site. [0010] It is an object of the present disclosure to provide a system and a method for availability of data to a Disaster Recovery (DR) Site to allow communication to run smoothly in case a Geo- Redundant (GR) Site is in a shut-down state or is not working properly. [0011] It is another object of the present disclosure to provide a solution that is time effective. [0012] It is yet another object of the present disclosure to provide a solution that provides optimal utilization of resources. SUMMARY [0013] This section is provided to introduce certain aspects of the present disclosure in a simplified form that are further described below in the detailed description. This summary is not intended to identify the key features or the scope of the claimed subject matter. [0014] An aspect of the present disclosure may relate to a method for optimising availability of an updated data at a secondary site. The method comprising receiving, by a transceiver unit at a Network Exposure Function (NEF)
