Telecom Charging System Architecture

No all telecom operators are blessed with in-house development teams that can devise new billing systems to meet the emerging requirements of their business. Some operators are still using older IN based billing systems that are not efficient at all. These systems act like a bottleneck and prevent a telecom operator from bringing his new services in the market on time. This compromises their  best laid plans  to exploit current market situations. For example, if a telco (using an obsolete billing system) wants to launch a new bundle that immediately addresses the current requirements of his subscribers, he would have to first contact the billing vendor and get the software re-built or altered. The time it takes for such an alteration may be too much and the opportunity may pass him by. Read More : https://exposetheme.socialnetworking.solutions/blog/best-telecom-billing-systems  

The Operation Support System (OSS) along with Business Support System (BSS) forms the basis of operations performed by telcos. For a longtime, the traditional BSS/OSS model has worked well for telecom operators.However, in the present, things have changed drastically.The launch of 5G and proliferation of IoT sensors has widened the playing field for telcos as they now have to deal with vast volumes of customer-generated data and at the same time offer interesting services to stay relevant in these testing times. One of the biggest challenges faced by telcos with regards to automation comes in the form of data enrichment. AI can only work its magic only if the data received from various network elements is normalized and standardized. The network data needs to have some relation with incoming demands from service orders that are active and contextual information routed through BSS. As OSS layer is the meeting point where all data insights converge, it makes sense to integrate AI ...
