WebSphere Telecom Web Services Server

IBM WebSphere Telecom Web Services Server

Consente ai service provider di telecomunicazione di utilizzare e trarre vantaggio dalle funzionalità di rete.

• Consente di utilizzare e trarre vantaggio dalle funzionalità di rete come Web service standard a terze parti, in modo flessibile e basato su criteri.
• Migliora i servizi e aumenta le opportunità di guadagno, grazie all'accesso a informazioni e funzioni di rete di telecomunicazione di terze parti, basato su standard.
• Consente di fidelizzare i clienti più importanti con distribuzione delle informazioni di rete flessibile e basata su criteri e SLA (Service Level Agreement), a livello di singolo abbonato o servizio.
• Permette di passare a nuove tecnologie di rete emergenti senza interrompere le applicazioni di clienti e terze parti esistenti, offrendo il supporto per le infrastrutture di rete correnti e di nuova generazione.
• Protegge le risorse di rete da accessi non autorizzati e da sovraccarichi con funzioni avanzate di gestione del traffico e controllo degli accessi.

• Explore new business models and revenue opportunities generated from the controlled service exposure of core network with a standards-based gateway for third-party access to network elements and information. It extends the Parlay REST API , GSMA OneAPI and the SOAP based Parlay X API industry standards to enable CSPs to provide third parties with controlled, reliable access to network capabilities such as location, messaging, presence and call control.

• Application developers can enhance consumer and enterprise applications with valuable service provider network capabilities and information by accessing network services through standards-based Parlay X web services and REST-style Application Programming Interfaces. This gives consumer and business users a broader choice of tailored applications that include rich communications capabilities.

• Modular architecture enables service providers to flexibly scale and evolve WebSphere Telecom Web Services Server implementations to meet rapidly changing customer demands and network technologies. WebSphere TWSS is comprised of a front-end Access Gateway for controlling and managing third-party access to network services and back-end service implementations of the Parlay X-based connections to network elements for exposing specific network functions and information.
  

  
  
  • Access Gateway: provides a common control point which CSPs can use to define, manage and enforce policies and Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for third-party services and subscribers. At all times, the CSP controls which applications and which users have access to which network capabilities and under what conditions. The Access Gateway is built on IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), which provides the flexibility to customize web service messages processing in accordance with the CSP's network policies. Access Gateway also allows CSPs to expose network capabilities such as location, messaging and charging through REST-style interfaces.
  
  
  • Web service implementations: deliver interfaces, compliant with Parlay X web services standards, for accessing network functions including third-party call, call notification, presence, terminal status and location, Short Messaging Service (SMS) and multimedia messaging (MMS). Additionally, WebSphere TWSS provides service providers flexible network implementation options by supporting connection to current networks through a Parlay Gateway, direct connection to network elements or connections to emerging IP Multimedia System (IMS) infrastructures.

  Capture the Innovation and Creativity of Millions of IT Developers with Telecom Web Services

  Historically, building applications and services that accessed or extended the service provider’s networks was very difficult. It required a select set of skills and knowledge of various pieces of equipment and a variety of telecom protocols. As a result, few ISVs provided telecom services and enterprise or consumer applications that leveraged telecom capabilities.

  Based on the principles of a service oriented architecture (SOA), telecom web services enable service creation to evolve from a highly specialized, platform-specific model to an open model built on proven technologies and products and a robust foundation defined by Parlay/Open Services Architecture (OSA). This new model for service creation and execution can reduce the dependency on advanced telecom equipment skills to create new services.

  WebSphere TWSS enables service providers to offer third-party application developers:

  • Isolation from telecom network complexity, allowing developers to focus their creativity on business or consumer functions rather than low-level implementation of communications capabilities.

  • Simplification of skills requirements, allowing a large pool of web developers access to communications service functionality without requiring detailed infrastructure knowledge.

  • Protection from evolving communications network technologies, with standardized web services interfaces that remain stable as service providers' networks evolve.
