Method and system for managing routing across multiple networks with separate routing masters

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a non-transitory computer readable medium communicatively coupled to the at least one processor, the non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon computer software comprising a set of instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the apparatus to:
• receive, from a calling party at an originating point in at least one first network, a request to establish a call between the calling party and a called party at a destination point in at least one second network;
• receive a first set of network information from one or more first routing databases associated with the at least one first network that is operated by a first service provider;
• receive a second set of network information from one or more second routing databases associated with the at least one second network that is operated by a second service provider that is separate from the first service provider;
• analyze the received first set of network information and the received second set of network information to generate a unified routing model for optimizing routing of the call between the calling party and the called party through the at least one first network and the at least one second network;
• select an optimized route through the at least one first network and the at least one second network for establishing the call based at least in part on the generated unified routing model;
• establish the call based at least in part on the selected optimized route;
• normalize routing data to fit each subnetwork within each of the at least one first network and the at least one second network;
• and
• datafill each routing engine in each corresponding subnetwork within each of the at least one first network and the at least one second network with the normalized routing data;
• wherein establishing the call based on the selected optimized route comprises sending routing instructions to each routing engine in each corresponding subnetwork within each of the at least one first network and the at least one second network to route the call based on the normalized routing data.

A system, comprising:

• a computing system, comprising:
• at least one first processor;
• and
• a first non-transitory computer readable medium communicatively coupled to the at least one first processor, the first non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon computer software comprising a first set of instructions that, when executed by the at least one first processor, causes the computing system to:
• receive, from a calling party at an originating point in at least one first network, a request to establish a call between the calling party and a called party at a destination point in at least one second network;
• receive a first set of network information from one or more first routing databases associated with the at least one first network that is operated by a first service provider;
• receive a second set of network information from one or more second routing databases associated with the at least one second network that is operated by a second service provider that is separate from the first service provider;
• analyze the received first set of network information and the received second set of network information to generate a unified routing model for optimizing routing of the call between the calling party and the called party through the at least one first network and the at least one second network;
• select an optimized route through the at least one first network and the at least one second network for establishing the call based at least in part on the generated unified routing model;
• establish the call based at least in part on the selected optimized route;
• normalize routing data to fit each subnetwork within each of the at least one first network and the at least one second network;

• wherein establishing the call based on the selected optimized route comprises sending routing instructions to each routing engine in each corresponding subnetwork within each of the at least one first network and the at least one second network to route the call based on the normalized routing data.
