One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for latency evaluation and management resolution are provided. A fingerprint for traffic flow over a communication network from an application executing on a device to a multi-access edge (MEC) server instance hosted by a MEC platform may be identified. The fingerprint may be used to track the traffic flow between the application and the MEC server in order to measure round trip time latencies of the traffic flow. In response to a round trip time latency violating a latency management policy, segment latencies along segments of a communication travel path of the traffic flow from the device to the MEC platform may be measured. A management resolution function may be performed based upon one or more of the segment latencies exceeding a threshold.
