Communications Service Providers (CSPs) have large investments in their legacy infrastructure – the same infrastructure that has failed to keep pace with service innovation in other domains, such as the Internet. Next generation networks hold the promise of meeting the service innovation challenge. However, wholesale network replacement is not feasible because networks do not easily interoperate with other networks and Intelligent Network (IN) capabilities are incompatible with newer IT systems.OCCAS The OCCAS Service Controller directly addresses and resolves these issues by supporting an open architecture that makes it easy to integrate with new technologies and networks. The product is a service broker that provides real time service orchestration and mediation capabilities. With a versatile orchestration engine and portfolio of interfaces, the product dramatically reduces the amount of time and risk associated with migrating from legacy platforms. It enables CSPs to launch innovative new services that blend legacy and IP networks with the IT domain.
