IPsphere

In the evolution of service provider business models, flexible partnering and collaboration with all the members of the value chain is essential. Standards-based frameworks like IPsphere will play a key role enabling partnership models between network and content service providers.

To accelerate its work, IPsphere has joined forces with the TM Forum, complementing the work of their Service Delivery Framework program, focusing on enabling control of service lifecycle management across all execution environments, thus allowing flexibility in binding services with product catalogues.

Integrating the principles and technical work of these two frameworks will create a pre-commercial test bed for pilot program testing and the demonstration of multi-vendor interoperability.


 

Overview

The IPsphere Framework delivers a business layer for rapid service delivery, including advanced support for IP and Web services through real-time control of session resources.

Using the principles of a service-oriented architecture (SOA), the framework delivers business flexibility with the assurance of industry-standards. With the IPsphere Framework, service creation utilizes a standardized registration and discovery process. It also supports payments for resource usage, quality assurance, and regulatory compliance.

Alongside the world's leading carriers and hardware and software vendors, Juniper Networks is actively involved in the IPsphere framework. In this highly collaborative environment, we work closely with service providers to develop innovative solutions to some of their most complex service delivery requirements.
