13. Parlay/OSA

14. What is Parlay? NRG • Def.: A mediator API between Telecom networks and 3rd Party applications • Open standards • Specified by the Parlay Group and 3GPP, ETSI, OSA • Secure interface • Applications connect to the NRG via a secure, measured and billable interface. ’Firewall’ Parlay/OSA Application servers Third Party Applications

15. Who is Parlay? Members: • Parlay Group created in March 1998 • In June 2000, became anopen multi vendor forum to standardize and promote open application programming interfaces. • Has over 68 members as of October 2003 • Operators • Telco vendors • IP vendors • Developers (www.parlay.org) …and more

16. For Operator/Service Provider Reduced Time to Market Address New Market Segments Higher revenues Reduced cost & churn For the Developers Faster development Lower costs Reduced complexity Reduced risk Higher revenues Benefits of PARLAY/OSA

17. SDK

18. The SDK contains the following API’s: • Core APIThe Core SDK is a Java implementation of the H-OSA protocol. • Utility APIThe Utility SDK goes one step further as it offers an abstraction from not only CORBA but also H-OSA. It does so by combining a series of H-OSA invocations and responses and offering this series through a simplified, proprietary API. • Test APIThe Test SDK can be used at design time to simulate the NRG.

22. Framework

23. 1 5++ 4 2 3 Initialising an Parlay/NRG application Client Application Framework Required Service

24. Framework • Secure access from applications to the telecom network • Most important functions: • Authentication • Authorization • Service Discovery • Establishment of service agreement

25. Service Level Agreement (SLA) examples • calls per second / simultaneous calls allowed • # MMS messages per second • trigger ranges allowed • charging impact allowed • etc. Service Level Agreement Agreement between operator and 3rd party Protection and security of network Business agreement

26. Service Level Agreement Client Application Framework User Location User Status User Interaction Registered Services

27. Application Life Cycle • Obtain access to the framework • Obtain the needed services • Handle multiple transactions • Release the used services • End the access to the framework Initialization phase Execution phase Termination phase
