2007 OSS Observer - Overall Inventory Market Forecast



“Inventory systems keep track of resources used to provision service. These resources may be

physical assets or they may be logical resources.

… modern systems not only track the inventory, but control the assignment of that inventory with

systems that understand how to consume, allocate and combine resources to support complex

connections and services.”

Classic Inventory ManagementConventional wisdom

• Typically seen as either a Physical Inventory problem, or as an enabler for Service Fulfillment

• Most commercial products are designed around one of these perspectives, and are strongly linked to a specific set of domains and business processes

• Most popular Inventory systems are over 10 years old; easy enhancements already made

• Bypassing limitations means replacing an entrenched monolithic legacy system or adding another silo – both painful Network

Supporting Service Fulfillment


Inventory in the Communications WorldUnified Perspective Required for Success

• Provisioning & activating a service for a subscriber requires a complete view of:• Resources & network

capabilities required for the service

• Availability of resources for subscriber location/device

• Capacity build planning requires a view of correspondence between physical and logical resources

• Effective service assurance enabled by knowing dependencies between services, logical resources and physical resources

Traditional inventory systems built only to manage the physical network; limited support for other perspectives causes provisioning issues, poor asset use and unhappy customers

Connection


Common Inventory ChallengesBarriers to supporting tomorrow’s infocomm needs

• Inventory model limitations• System architecture doesn’t naturally adapt to meet new business needs

• For example, some legacy systems cannot represent IP addresses, telephone numbers, VLANs, IPTV, multimedia content, etc.

• Enforced linkages between layers, such as services-to-resources• NG services often require no specific transport to be modeled

• Dependency on vendors to make enhancements to vintage software• No low-risk way to extend software capability

• Existing systems locked into a specific set of domains with no elegant way to add support for new domains

• Absence of a comprehensive source for inventory data• Current inventory systems oriented toward only asset lifecycle management or support

only service fulfillment

• CRM, BRM, Order Management, Asset Management systems all maintain significant, uncoordinated inventory repositories

Quest for speed to market often leads to costly and unpleasant compromises


Back to the Drawing BoardQuestion everything

Why should Billing, CRM and capacity planning all have their own inventories of

services and resources?

Why can’t the same pool of inventory data be

used in multiple contexts?

Isn’t there a generically applicable data model for telco and IT?

Isn’t there a standardized set of business process definitions?

SID?

eTOM?

MTOSI?

What about logical resources like

VLAN IDs, TNs and IMSIs?

Why should a telco that needs to manage just a few types of resource need to buy and deploy a huge Inventory system?

Can SOA be retrofitted onto a mature application?

Can contemporary software technologies lead to really long-lived applications?

Are out-of-box completeness and ability to

customize mutually

exclusive?

Can we have both

performance and

flexibility?

Why should you

need to model

TDM channels to

provision VoIP?

•What should Inventory be?

•What commercial and solution design options

should an Inventory product enable?

•How can the useful life of a software product

be maximized while minimizing TCO?

Design Studio for UIMArtifacts Built in Design Studio Give UIM Its “Face”

To model these inventory components in

UIM …

This powerful GUI environment is used to create configuration packages, by

• Oracle

• Systems Integrators

• Service Provider’s expert users

… we first use Design Studio to create the specifications that

define these types of object …

… which are a realization of the

object model of the DSL service


Visualization and NavigationGraphics to enhance user experience

• Map View of Networks

• Nodes as overlays on a multi-layered map, showing scope, coverage, proximity

• Large Network Views

• Improved zoom, drill-down and navigation for complex and layered networks

• Service Topology

• View of nodes and connectivity involved in supporting a service, with drill-down and expanded information

Provides richer information, including a geospatial and geopolitical perspective


SearchingConfigurable searches across unified inventory

• Additional search criteria available

• Identify equipment by Device, Place, ID, Role etc.

• Logical devices searchable by custom characteristics

• Examples of efficient use of object properties:

• No need to go through all Cisco IP Phones to find those with Voice Activity Detection Support andSIP v2 VoIP Protocol

• No need to open each 1630 DSX card to find those located in the Plano Main Central Office


UIM and Data Federation Framework and Samples

• Federation enables UIM to leverage legacy system data in user interface without a major data migration

• Framework allows transparent visibility with appropriate control over resources

• PoC 1

• UIM as Service Inventory

• Policy Services as Resource Inventory (IP Addresses)

• PoC 2

• MSS as Service Inventory

• UIM as Resource Inventory (VLAN IDs)
