Abstract: Embodiments of present disclosure relate to a method and an electronic device for determining a storage node (SN) for a network element (NE) in a communication network. The method comprises detecting addition of a NE to a plurality of NEs, wherein each of the plurality of NEs is dynamically allocated to a virtualization unit of a plurality of virtualization units, obtaining context information associated with each of a plurality of storage nodes and the NE upon detecting the addition of the NE to the plurality of NEs, wherein the plurality of storage nodes is located in the communication network and configured to store data associated with the plurality of NEs, and determining a storage node from the plurality of storage nodes for the NE, based on the context information associated with each of the plurality of storage nodes and the NE, wherein the virtualization unit of the plurality of virtualization units allocated to each of the plurality of NEs is updated upon selection of the storage node for the NE.
