Key enablers of IoT ecosystem
Enabling platforms: Platforms are the foundation of the ecosystem.
APIs: APIs are the basic building blocks of an IoT ecosystem.
Communities: Communities of partners need to exist for ecosystems to be true ecosystems.
Own branded services: Makes sense for businesses to offer complete IoTsolutions, either with their own products or through integration with partners.
Revenue models: Revenue models are a key aspect for the successful development of IoT ecosystems.
Ecosystem support functions: The final enabler is the internal organization and the related support functions.

Why OSS/BSS• América Móvil, AT&T, du, Etisalat, KPN, Ooredoo, NTT,
Sprint, Tele2, Telenor Connexion, TeliaSonera, Telstra, Verizon, Vodafone and others, are creating these new technology stacks (through buying, building or partnering) in order to:– Offer new IoT managed service– Enable new business models– Reduce risks in new markets– Support simple integrations of both horizontal and vertical
solutions

OSS/BSS in IoTMonetizing IoT: the ecosystem players –including the industries, the DSPs, the users and the regulatory agencies – are more focused on other service attributes:
• Technical feasibility
• Availability
• Usability
• Utility
• Security
• Establishing supply chains

IOT and OSS BSS – Five Layer Framework • Network Management: Helps tooptimize the network to meet theuser requirements of IoT
a) Operationb) Administrationc) Provisioning
• Connectivity management: ManageIoT connectivity elements andaggregate IoT usage data
a) Convergent billing systemsb) Customer management systemsc) Application integration frameworkd) Service activatione) Managed services

IOT and OSS BSS platform framework
• Device Management: Manage IoTdevices
a) Provisioning and authenticationb) Configuration and controlc) Monitoring and diagnosticsd) Software updates and maintenance
• Data Management: Capture andstore IoT data and deliver that datato other applications.
a) Temporal collectionb) Modal Collectionc) Session based synchronization for
data base exchange.9Reference: MachNation, 2015 (netcracker)
• Analytics: Analyze and visualizeactual data and combine datasources to give customers theability to understand their data inorder to improve their businesses,their lives.
a) Data Storage
b) Data Mining
c) Data Exploration
d) Data Visualization

Daemon Telecom Suite (Converged BSS OSS Solution)
• Agile, Multi-play converged BSS solution– CRM
– Billing
– Rating functions
– Personalized Features
• Solution to transform existing Legacy Billing, OSS and BSS andpartner management sol. Into NG Converged BSS OSS andCRM solutions
12
Daemon Telecom Suite
• It provides settlement function for services across data, voice, VOIP, IoT i.e. across multiple lines of business.
• Configurable Bill Cycle
• It support TM Forum’s e-TOM standards

Agility is key for the Internet of things billing solutions.

Billing flows in an exemplary case scenario
• Billing is a Crucial Aspect
• It has to support all relations, levelsof charging and processes for theend-to-end billing chain.
• The whole financial area is quitelarge and can be described as multi-leveled, multi-tenant, multideviceenvironment where billing has totake into account SIM & deviceLifecycle as well as Customer /Reseller & End User

Typical OSS Solution
19
Shortcoming of Typical OSS Solution in IoT Cases
• This type of architecture tends to degrade over time as changes occur and agility actually reduces
• Vertical applications, commercial of the shelf (COTS) software and custom software, would typically provide a tightly integrated application to cover one vertical area of functionality, such as assurance, and these would then be integrated horizontally to enable them to interwork
20
Proposed Architecture - OSS
21
Why Proposed Architecture?
• Horizontal SOA based layered approach to the OSS architecture is better suited to delivering on the business requirements.
• Loose coupling of components– Minimized the risk that changes in one component will require
changes in any other component.
• All capabilities exposed by standardized APIs
• Network as a Service or NaaS
• Simple connection and policy enforcement22
OSS of the Future: Catering IoE• The service provider of the future – flexible and agile• Rethinking the role of the OSS• The OSS reimagined – from vertical to horizontal• The role of Open Source – the network operating
system• Onboarding – enabling a marketplace for network
functionality• Modelling the OSS of the future with Frameworx
