1. An orchestration system comprising:
memory; and
at least one processing circuitry coupled to the memory, the at least one processing circuitry configured to perform operations to:
obtain, from a plurality of connectivity nodes providing edge at least one of a plurality of services associated with an edge workload, physical location information and resource availability information associated with each of the plurality of connectivity nodes; and
provision the plurality of connectivity nodes with a workflow execution plan to execute the plurality of services associated with the edge workload, the workflow execution plan including metadata with a geofence policy, wherein the geofence policy specifies geofence restrictions associated with each of the plurality of services.
