Ericsson OSS BSS Education Services Overview
Ericsson OSS BSS Education Services Overview

From an initial product launch to its smooth-running operation, every technology investment depends on
and requires an investment in people. Their knowledge, productivity, and competence are critical
components of any carrier's continued success.
To help ensure that your project begins with the best possible start and continues to provide the highest
Return on Investment (ROI), we have created a port folio of "best practice" tried and tested education and
training offers for our products.
A Heritage of Education
Known for getting it right the first time, we’ve been training telecommunications professionals worldwide
for more than 25 years. We're proud of the quality and skills of our education consult ants, and it's our goal
to help our clients and partners complete the same rigorous educ ation regimen and achieve the same
benchmarks that we have set for ourselves.
Sometimes, "off-the-shelf" can be slightly off-the-mark.

No matter how varied and adaptable we make our courses and materials we understand that some
companies and situations require their own arrangements. Our flexible training options are designed to

Scenario Led Training Models

End-to-End Build focus
Training is designed to take participants through the build out of a common Met roE/MPLS net work domain
with a focus on the modeling of Triple-Play and VPN Subscriber Services. Additionally, each product of the
Granite Inventory Suite (Works Module, Assign and Design Module, AutoRouter Module, etc.) are
positioned within the courses architecture to reflect the CSP experience and arc hitecture of the Wireline
build case.

Assign and Design Access Network Automation Flow
Via the applic ation of manual builds, Automated Provisioning, Automated Routing and Workflow analysis,
the Wireline Solution Training provides seamless integration into the common administration,
implementation and integration tasks of a true OSS Solution flow for Wireline efficiency and process logic.
As with all Telcordia Education Models, the focus is on learning through application and true network
modeling exercises.
A True to Life Triple Play Experience

In addition to the modeling of Access Network resources and service pat hs and objects, the Wireline
Solution Training also provides for examination and ex ercises on the following common topics:
• Operator and customer sites modeling
• Access network physical, logical and service models
• Triple Play and VPN service objects modeling
• Workflow templates
• Trans port network physical and logical models

Granite Inventory Assign and Design Module (Assign and Design) is a configurable and extensible
assignment engine that manages the life cycle of primary objects in the Granite Inventory databas e. The
module enables flow through provisioning by automating key operations such as assignment, building
inventory on-the-fly, assignment correction and completion.
The technology agnostic framework can be configured “out of the box” for specific technologies by
deploying COTS aut omation modules. In addition, system integrators can further customize Assign and
Design through configurable reference dat a and by either writing new Java soft ware plug-ins or using
method overriding for existing plug-ins. Assign and Design’s open interfaces facilitate flow though by
providing a consistent set of coarse grained AP Is to orchestration systems and GUIs.

Implementing the Granite Inventory Core application requires substantial technical skills and knowledge
in understanding the invent ory database structure and using tools to access inventory data
programmatically. It may also require developers and programmers to create plug-ins that implement
rules for validation and authentication, or use Java Message System (JMS ) E vents when trans actions
with the Granite Inventory database occur. Skills in writing adapters to collect data directly from
telecommunication network elements for populating the Granite Inventory database may also be required
when implementing the Granite Inventory Core application.

Granite Inventory ASI API Toolkit
Granite Inventory ASI API Toolkit

* This content is covered in the 5-day Core Implement er course
The Granite Inventory Advanced Services Interfac e (ASI) Application Programming Interface (AP I) Toolkit
(ASI API Toolkit) allows developers to implement functionality that communicat es with the Granite
Inventory system. It provides a Java API that supports custom implementations that interact with Granite
Inventory objects, user authentication, and targeted messaging. With object classes for all the major data
types in the Granite Inventory database, ASI provides business rules and validation tables to ensure the
integrity of the data being processed by the client program or application. The ASI API Toolkit also
includes a set of Web Services that supports the creation of the key components to enable the transfer of
application data and allow the Granite Inventory Objects to be used as the object types for Web Service
input arguments.
The ASI API Toolkit training course is intended for those Administrators and System Int egrators with
experience writing code to Sun’s Java API, who needs to integrat e the Granite Inventory Core System
with other OSS soft ware applications.

Granite Inventory AutoRouter
Granite Inventory AutoRouter

OBES GI-00-05
Auto routing within the Granite Inventory application is the process of identifying candidate routes
between two locations (A-side site and Z-side site). Each candidate route is a series of links or “hops”
from site to site, connecting the two end sites. During the auto routing process, Granite Inventory offers
numerous criteria for determining the best route for a path which uses the Least Number of Hops, Least
Cost or Shortest Distance criteria.
The Granite Inventory AutoRouter training course is intended for those individuals needing to streamline
network design creation using the Granite End User Client.

Granite Inventory Java Plug-ins

The Granite Inventory Plug-in Toolkit allows developers or knowledgeable Java programmers to make
use of these plug-in modules and develop using either SQL procedures (in the database) or Enterprise
Java Beans (EJBs) (deployed on the same or anot her application server) that extend the power of the
Granite Inventory application to provide custom business logic, authentication, and validations specific to
your deployment. The Granite Inventory System comes with several pre-installed Java-based plug-ins.
These plug-ins are deployed in the middle tier and appear in the Granite Inventory Administration Client
plug-in registry as default plug-ins.

Granite Inventory Rearrangement Manager Administration

OBES GI-00-37
Granite Inventory Rearrangement Manager is a separate module, fully integrated with the Granite
Inventory Granite Inventory system. It enables users to rearrange (modify) a group of primary data
objects (e.g., paths/net works) to make use of different underlying facilities. The Rearrangement Manager
Module framework provides the base functionality, including projects and project work flow, process
execution for concurrent execution of rearrangement tasks (design scenarios), a plug-in for modules and
low-level business logic, and a set of library modules that provide processing logic for use with multiple
modules.
