1. A method for capacity management of virtual space in a network, the method comprising:
by a metaverse capacity management module:
receiving an input of a capacity size need of a virtual space in a metaverse;
monitoring a first quantity of avatars entering, leaving, and occupying the virtual space;
comparing the first quantity of avatars in the virtual space with a predetermined fill threshold;
determining that the first quantity of avatars in the virtual space exceeds the predetermined fill threshold; and
based on the determining that the first quantity of avatars in the virtual space exceeds the predetermined fill threshold, creating a duplicate virtual space of the virtual space when the first quantity of avatars in the virtual space exceeds the predetermined fill threshold.
