Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is a routing device (1) for routing a service request (R) to a service function, the routing device (1) comprising a processor (11), being configured to: establish (21) a forwarding state for routing the service request (R) to a number of instances of the service function, the forwarding state comprising a unique index for each unit of a normalized capacity of processing units of the respective instance of the service function and a next hop towards the respective instance of the service function; establish (22) a network-awareness state comprising a measurement count and a measurement value for the respective instance of the service function; and adapt (23) the forwarding state in accordance with the network-awareness state. Thereby, service provisioning may be load-balanced in accordance with processing capabilities of service instances as well as network capabilities between service clients and service instances.
