Established March 1, 2008; Still in early organizational phase Chartered with a clear focus on telecoms services in SOA Flexibility to create Technical Committees as needed to focus on

specific topics Major SOA-focused companies are founders OASIS members can freely join the Member Section with no

additional allocation of fees Current steering committee consists of members from

OASIS Telecom Member Section (Telecom MS)

chair • Tony Nadalin, IBM

Telecom MS Objectives

Attract vendors; Telecom and IT providers, developers as well as practitioners

and researchers in a wide range of topics concerned with SOA paradigm in the

Telecom domain

Promote the use of SOA in Telecom

Understanding current Gaps and limitations Gather Requirements

Focus on resolving specific telecommunications related issues within the SOA

framework on a service such as:

Security, Raw performance, Service availability, Service Level Agreement

(SLA)

Support for incorporating service behavioral properties

Support availability and reliability for mission-critical composed services

Service management of mission critical composed services


Why OASIS Telecom MS

Many existing SOA and Web Services standards do not address specific needs of

telecoms operators/vendors

One example is the orchestration of network components

Several Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) are applying SOA and

Web Services to the telecoms sector, but since each SDO has its own approach,

this is leading to fragmentation of standards

A “Member Section” in OASIS gives a clear focus on telecoms services in a SOA

framework; flexibility to create tightly-focused Technical Committees as needed

Aims to complement other SDO; No duplication of work

Telecom MS provides a unique opportunity to become a member of an active community whose goal is to apply SOA principles to the telecom domain

Example of Open Issues (1)SOA Telecom Service Composition

Composition allows Exposition of capabilities or enablers Enable other services to consume those capabilities Dynamically combining the key service enablers such as

presence, billing, management etc.. Works with aggregation, federation and management of

orchestrated services

Sharing user data across Service Platforms is essential for creating Composite Services
