1. An orchestration system comprising:
a processing device,
a memory device configured to store a computer program having instructions that, when executed, enable the processing device to
obtain a first set of parameters pertaining to a data source configured as a first node in a communications system from the data source,
obtain a second set of parameters pertaining to a data sink configured as a second node in the communications system from the data sink,
obtain a third set of parameters pertaining to a plurality of network elements and links configured along one or more data paths between the data source and the data sink from an edge device disposed between the data source and the data sink,
automatically create a high-bandwidth data transfer strategy for transferring a massive amount of data from the data source to the data sink based on the first, second, and third sets of parameters, the high-bandwidth data transfer strategy including adjusting or tuning multiple hardware and software settings of one or more of the data source, the data sink, and applicable network elements and links selected from the plurality of network elements and links, and
a centralized controller and an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-assisted flow optimizer, wherein the centralized controller is associated with the processing device, and wherein the AI-assisted flow optimizer is configured to create an AI model that utilizes the high-bandwidth data transfer strategy.
