Abstract
A service delivery platform (SDP) docking station (DS) is part of a multiple layer service delivery platform implementation. The SDP DS adds a second SDP layer between the end user and the Core SDP. The Core SDP implements the process flows that enable, provision, and execute telecommunications products and services. The SDP DS provides a customizable front end to the Core SDP to provide local service provider customization, flexible local selection and activation of products and services, and other features.
Claims15
A method for implementing a telecommunications service delivery platform, comprising:
- locally implementing, at a first physical location, a service delivery platform extension, comprising:
- a subscriber user interface component;
- a service metering component;
- a core service delivery platform interface component;
- and
- a local service orchestration component comprising an enterprise service bus in communication with the subscriber user interface component, the service metering component, and the core service delivery platform interface component;
- generating a local service provisioning interface on the subscriber user interface component;
- receiving a subscriber service provisioning request for a telecommunication service through the subscriber user interface component;
- communicating the subscriber service provisioning request through the local service orchestration component to the core service delivery platform interface component;
- communicating a telecommunications service provisioning message, through the core service delivery platform interface component, to a remote core service delivery platform, in a second physical location, via a web services interface of the remote core service delivery platform, which implements service provisioning to fulfill the service provisioning request;
- and
- locally metering, using the metering component, telecommunications service calls flowing through the service delivery platform extension and arising from the telecommunication service.

A service delivery system, comprising:
- a service delivery platform extension that operates on a computers system located at
- a first physical location, the service delivery platform extension comprising:
- a subscriber user interface component;
- a service metering component;
- a core service delivery platform interface component;
- and
- a local service orchestration component comprising an enterprise service bus in communication with the subscriber user interface component, the subscriber user interface component, and the core service delivery platform interface component, the local service orchestration component comprising service provisioning logic operable to:
- generate a local service provisioning interface on the subscriber user interface component;
- receive a subscriber service provisioning request for a telecommunication service through the subscriber user interface component;
- communicate the subscriber service provisioning request through the local service orchestration component to the core service delivery platform interface component;
- communicate telecommunications service provisioning messages, through the core service delivery platform interface component, to a remote core service delivery platform, in a second physical location, via a web services interface of the remote core service delivery platform, which implements service provisioning to fulfill the service provisioning request;
- and
- locally meter, using the metering component, telecommunications service calls flowing through the service delivery platform extension and arising from the telecommunication service.

A non-transitory machine readable medium including instructions which when executed by a data processing system, cause the data processing system to:
- locally implement, at a first physical location, a service delivery platform extension, comprising:
- a subscriber user interface component;
- a service metering component;
- a core service delivery platform interface component;
- and
- a local service orchestration component comprising an enterprise service
- bus in communication with the subscriber user interface component, the service metering component, and the core service delivery platform interface component;
- generating a local service provisioning interface on the subscriber user interface component;
- receive a subscriber service provisioning request for a telecommunication service through the subscriber user interface component;
- communicate the subscriber service provisioning request through the local service orchestration component to the core service delivery platform interface component;
- communicate a telecommunications service provisioning message, through the core service delivery platform interface component, to a remote core service delivery platform, in a second physical location, via a web services interface of the remote core service delivery platform, which implements service provisioning to fulfill the service provisioning request;
- and
- locally meter, using the metering component, telecommunications service calls flowing through the service delivery platform extension and arising from the telecommunication service.
