OSS/J APIs Download: SOA Enablement view

This view shows the set of APIs that are most suitable for the implementation and deployment of OSS solutions that require the use of several APIs in accordance with service oriented architecture principles.
 
To serve these objectives, all the APIs of this view share a common SOA-ready middleware foundation and help decouple the business logic from the integration infrastructure and functional interfaces.

Thanks to this common foundation all APIs can be easily deployed on commercially available products or open source distributions of enterprise platforms that comply to Java and Web Services standards. All APIs offer three programatic or message-driven integration profiles: tight coupling with Java/RMI/IIOP, loose coupling with XML/JMS, and cross boundaries with Web Services.

All integration profiles feature: interface definitions, reference implementations, which help in solution deployments, and test suites, used to verify compliance with the standard definitions. Source code is included for reference implementations and test suites.

The Fault Management team also issued a 3GPP Alarm Official Extension to the Fault Management API.

NEW!: t
he Trouble Ticket API v1.2 has been completed by adding the reference implementation and compatibility test kit for the web services profile. The Trouble Ticket team also issued a X.790 Official Extension to the Trouble Ticket API. Also available, a document describing the differences between Trouble Ticket v1.0 and Trouble Ticket v1.2 plus X.790 extension.  Click here to download it.


Reminder: the
Order Management API incorporates and replaces the OSS/J Service Activation API. The Fault Management API supersedes the fault management part of the Quality of Service API.

Technical Notes:

The APIs listed in the table above: 

  • are based on the OSS/J Common API v1.5
  • are aligned with the OSS/J Design Guidelines 2.0
  • share a common data model (OSS/J CBE) derived from the TM Forum SID v6
  • have been generated with the same set of tools
  • are available to the public as final releases or as maintenance releases
