Netrac API

TEOCO’s Netrac open architecture solution of pre-integrated Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for FaM and PMM

  • Overview

    One of many challenges facing Communications Service Providers (CSPs) is the growing need to integrate multiple OSS systems deployed across their organization. Increasing complexity of modern OSS systems usually leads to expensive integration costs, especially when some of these systems employ closed architecture and proprietary APIs (Application Program Interfaces).

    TEOCO’s Netrac utilizes modern, open architecture of pre-integrated modules with well-defined interfaces. They are built upon state-of-the-art infrastructure technologies from leading vendors, such as Oracle, Weblogic, Actuate, ILOG and others. Built with “extensibility by design”, Netrac has been one of the most open OSS systems for a long time. This ability has been further enhanced by creating FaM and PMM APIs, a powerful module that implements a set of industry standard northbound APIs.

    Fault and Performance (FaM and PMM) APIs are based on the extensive work performed in TMF OSS/J and Multi-Technology Operations System Interface (MTOSI) groups. TEOCO experts have been active members of the OSS/J FM Expert Group and TMF MTOSI committee and have contributed to both standards. Currently TEOCO is a member of TMF mTOP Service Assurance group, part of TMF NGOSS initiative and continues to participate and contribute to creation of new standards in the area of Service Assurance.

  • Benefits

    • Decreases integration costs and improves interoperability between different vendors.
    • Separates management business logic and underlying transport using technology independent back end transport.
    • Well suited to a heterogeneous platform environment.
    • Removes unnecessary variety in interfacing by a single model and interface definition for all network technologies. 

  • Features

    • Open service-oriented XML-based APIs for Fault and Performance.
    • Standard implementation based on TMF OSS/J QoS API, JSR-90.
    • Promotes a Service-Oriented interface that allows to choose from different transport options including: XML over JMS, SOAP over HTTP and SOAP over JMS.
