Enable Service Convergence
In today’s fast paced communications
environment, the ability to support a wide
range of network architectures, service
types and industry standards may mean the
difference between success and failure.
The Service Lifecycle Model was developed with this diverse set
of services and networks in mind. Rather
than supporting solely circuit- or
packet-based networks, the Service Lifecycle
Model is truly
network convergent. It enables service
providers to integrate the platform into
multiple networks simultaneously, preserving
investments in legacy infrastructure while
deploying cutting-edge infrastructure to
support new IP-based services.
The Service Lifecycle Model also facilitates the integration of external
applications and services such as third
party content providers and external
marketing companies.
Lower the cost of Integration
The SLM draws on standards and best practices from the communications and internet industries to develop a scalable, flexible and standards-based architecture that serves as an industry-leading integration platform.

Flexible Architecture
As the foundation of a modular platform, the
Service Lifecycle Model enables service providers to deploy
across virtually any architecture—whether
distributed, centralized, or hybrid. Points
of administration and management can be
located anywhere, no matter where the
collection and processing of network
activity and transactions occurs. This
enables service providers—especially those
operating globally—to support organizational
and regulatory needs while still ensuring
security and system availability and
reliability.
