Apparatus and method for notifying communication network event in application server capable of supporting open API based on Web services

Abstract

An apparatus and method for notifying a communication network event in an application server capable of supporting open APIs based on Web services are disclosed. The event notification apparatus configures an event table using a service provisioning manager to perform event notification, and registers static events, allows a service application to request the beginning of dynamic event notification from a gateway. If a corresponding static or dynamic event occurs in the communication network, and the gateway calls an event notification API processor, the event notification API processor transmits the event to the service application by referring to the event table, such that it can notify the service application of the static or dynamic event under the open API environment based on Web services.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
