OSM Whitepaper: OSM Deployment and Integration

This whitepaper illustrates how Open Source Mano (OSM) can interwork with a Communications Service Providers (CSP)’s existing Business and Operational Support Systems (BSS/OSS) and reap many of the process automation benefits by looking at the use case of business services. This use case shows how OSM can interface with existing BSS/OSS through its northbound interface (NBI), so that network services can be orchestrated and managed by OSM can be presented to the customer through an existing BSS and/or integrated with existing business services. In the latter case, the network service orchestrated and managed by OSM can be integrated as a component of a wider service, managed by the existing BSS/OSS.
