Communication service providers are faced with the challenge of managing increasingly complex networks and charging infrastructures. Competition requires continuous rollout of new services and payment options. To meet this objective, new network elements and protocols are introduced on a regular basis needing to be integrated into the charging architecture with a short turnaround time.
A flexible mediation platform is a key enabler to achieve this. Service providers need to collect and process information from a diverse and complex network environment and feed it into their charging, billing and business control systems. Integration needs to be performed combining of online and offline mode, to enable true pre- and post-paid convergence for all services.
