Originating number or address-based route determination and routing

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 first router among a plurality of routers in a first network operated by a first service provider, first session initiation protocol (“SIP”) data, the first SIP data indicating a request to initiate a SIP-based media communication session between a calling party at an originating address in an originating network and a called party at a terminating address in a terminating network;
• determine a communication route among a plurality of routes through the plurality of routers in the first network for establishing the SIP-based media communication session, based at least in part on the originating address;
• and
• establish the SIP-based media communication session between the calling party and the called party via the determined communication route through the plurality of routers in the first network,
• wherein determining the communication route comprises:
• determining, using the computing system, whether a first set of conditions is satisfied, the first set of conditions comprising that the request to initiate the SIP-based media communication session originates on a shared trunk group, that the calling party is an on-network (“on-net”) subscriber, and that the terminating address is on a collaboration platform;
• based on a determination that the first set of conditions is satisfied, identifying, using the computing system, a third set of routes among the plurality of routers through which SIP-based media communications satisfying the first set of conditions are assigned to be routed;
• and
• selecting, using the computing system, a third route from among the identified third set of routes, wherein the communication route comprises the selected third route.

A system, comprising:

• a computing system, comprising:
• at least one first processor;

• determine a communication route among a plurality of routes through the plurality of routers in the first network for establishing the SIP-based media communication session, based at least in part on the originating address;
• and
• establish the SIP-based media communication session between the calling party and the called party via the determined communication route through the plurality of routers in the first network,
• wherein determining the communication route comprises:
• determining, using the computing system, whether a first set of conditions is satisfied, the first set of conditions comprising that the request to initiate the SIP-based media communication session originates on a shared trunk group, that the calling party is an on-network (“on-net”) subscriber, and that the terminating address is on a collaboration platform;
