1. A method performed in a machine-to-machine/internet of things (M2M/IoT) system by a first service layer entity implemented on an apparatus of a communications network, the method comprising:
receiving a data continuity service request, wherein the data continuity service request comprises information associated with a computing device;
determining, based on the data continuity service request, to configure a second service layer entity implemented on another apparatus of the communications network for performing one or more data operations on data associated with the computing device;
configuring the second service layer entity for performing the one or more data operations on the data associated with the computing device;
receiving, from the computing device, a request to perform, by the first service layer entity, at least one data operation, wherein the request to perform the at least one data operation identifies a resource associated with the first service layer entity; and
retargeting, to the second service layer entity, the request to perform the at least one data operation on at least a portion of the data.
