3 NGOSS jigsaw is finally coming together etom complete Heavily used across the industry ITU have accepted it as a formal standard etom architecture Technology Neutral Architecture defined Real route to implementation (Java) in place through OSS/J SID how to.. SID being adopted by all TMF activities as the standard approach DMTF, Oasis, OMG, etc. all looking at using the SID The How to Use NGOSS Methodology in Place Worked examples proving that methodology Great progress on Compliance 3

4 OSS/J Fundamentals Foster a market of interoperable and interchangeable OSS components nts... building upon mainstream J2EE platform to enable Java, XML and Web s implementations... defining and agreeing on useful Design Patterns and functional APIs... proving the APIs with real systems, best practices and solution patterns... creating a market place of interoperable products 4

10 TMF and OSS/J so far Informal coordination since inception of NGOSS and OSS/J Informal but Strong coordination!!! 10

11 TMF and OSS/J so far TMF Board: BT, Motorola, NEC, Nokia, Sun, Telcordia, Vodafone NGOSS Council: BT, Eftia, QinetiQ NGOSS Architecture: 4DH Consulting, BT, Eftia, MBT, MetaSolv, Motorola, Nokia, Nortel, QinetiQ etom: BT, MetaSolv, QinetiQ, Motorola NGOSS SID: MBT, MetaSolv, Motorola NGOSS Compliance: Eftia, MetaSolv, Motorola NGOSS Lifecycle: BT, QinetiQ IGAB: MetaSolv, Motorola, Nortel, Sun Mobile Market Center: BT, Motorola Value Chain Market Center: BT, Motorola MTNM/MTOSI: BT, Nortel, Telcordia IPNM: BT, Digital Fairway, MBT, QinetiQ SOIP: BT, MBT HMI: Nortel Framework: QinetiQ SPLC: BT, QinetiQ, Vodafone And leading participation in a number of Catalyst projects 11

12 TMF and OSS/J Today More formalized coordination to combine: Operational and business best practices from telco land; and Implementation best practices from software land 12

13 OSS through Java as an Implementation of NGOSS A White Paper 13

14 Introduction and Goals Motivation: Plan: Deliverable: NGOSS has delivered OSS business solutions; OSS/J has delivered OSS implementations is there synergy? compare the respective programs for technical alignment as a basis for closer collaboration a white paper and recommendations for further work 14

15 Areas of investigation The white paper explores alignment of: architectural principles contracts lifecycle information modeling techniques the overall direction of the programs certification 15

16 Architectural Principles NGOSS Principle Shared Information Integrated Applications Legacy support and data mediation Naming and distribution services Interworking Business process Contracts (SCOs) Security Federation Policy management OSS/J Implementation CBE Suite of APIs Java Connector Architecture (JCA) Java Naming and DirectoryInterface (JNDI) JMS and IIIOP Session Beans Java declarations Java Authentication and Authorization Specification (JAAS) Session Beans NGOSS principles are either supported directly by J2EE or by OSS/J Design Guidelines 16

17 Contracts and Interfaces Contracts model behaviour in terms of rights and obligations NGOSS System Capability Objects (SCOs) are part of NGOSS contracts Java declarations and SCOs follow a contract model for interface-behaviour specification Schemata for SCOs and Java declarations both include input and output parameters, preconditions, post-conditions, and exceptions 17

18 Contracts and Interfaces (2) Capability Object Schema Elements Java Method Declaration Schema Elements Comments Input Entities Output Entities Pre-Conditions (condition objects) Method signature Return type Input-parameter type information Java methods only return one type Java programming language does not natively support predicate calculus; OSS/J uses Javadoc Post-condition system exception Post-Conditions (condition objects) Exception Return type Java programming language does not natively support predicate calculus; OSS/J uses Javadoc Clear structural alignment differences in level of formality 18

21 Summary Findings: Programs are deeply aligned architecturally SID and CBE initiatives are closely linked Certification programs are complementary OSS/J program direction is firmly rooted in etom Next steps: Collaborative technical and marketing programs Investigate Web-services-based OSS management BoFs on new APIs at future TMWs 21

23 TMF and OSS/J tomorrow TMF and OSS/J have built complementary assets to address the same goals. Call to action to TMF and OSS/J members for much stronger deliverables than the usual liaisons, cross-alignment studies, or crosspositioning statements. We can map and synchronize assets. Our limit is our own creativity! 23
