SOA and NGOSS Contracts: A Practical Approach to Integration

Many service providers are achieving success by applying the best practices of NGOSS to their IT transformation projects. This is because NGOSS standards cover the key technical aspects necessary for success — architecture (TNA), applications (Applications Framework - TAM), process (Business Process Framework - eTOM) and data (Information Framework - SID). You can use these standards and concepts to build a service oriented architecture (SOA) to help meet your IT Transformation goals. Listen to this archived webinar presented by John Wilmes, Progress Software, and Ian Best, TM Forum to learn how you can apply these frameworks toward your goals and how NGOSS and NGOSS contracts support the creation of a standards-based service oriented architecture (SOA).

Why Use a Common Model for OSS/BSS Data Integration?

OSS/BSS data integration for an SOA requires data interoperability. Successful data integration for SOA requires realtime mediation to keep data consistent. You need to be able to prevent data and message format changes from breaking your business. And, properly done, your development team can be more productive throughout the project lifecycle.

Listen the this archived webinar and learn how to:

• Reduce the risk of incorrect results due to semantic mismatch
• Understand the impact of a requirement change on your SOA before it happens
• Simplify the adoption and use of a common data model
