3.0 – Operational Support System (OSS) – Overview & Components

Peacey Systems provides a hosted OSS solution that allows clients to use the robust system remotely via the internet to manage their business and end users.  The OSS was designed specifically in an open architecture environment to support provisioning, management, and billing for IP based subscription services. The system is built on a flexible, real-time, fully integrated database architecture that supports and communicates with our multiple application servers. The OSS design and architecture, in conjunction with Peacey Systems’ On Demand software architecture, provides scalability, reliability and availability for small and large ISPs, telecommunication providers, cable operators and software companies.

The following section outlines the key components of the OSS.

Web Interface for Real-time Access

The OSS system is maintained in our secure, carrier-class data center. No software or hardware is required at your facility in order to access and utilize our OSS. Our simple web-based interface ensures maximum flexibility and speed of deployment for our clients.

Important features of our OSS interface:

  • Secure, web-based, real-time access to the OSS system
  • Intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) facilitates easy navigation and use of the OSS, as well as reducing training time
  • Customize administrative access rights based on assignable permissions
  • Brandable, customizable interface for end users to access the OSS and manage their individual account information

Marketing and End User Sign-Up (Registration)

The registration of new end users, is one of the most critical processes for any service provider. Our OSS has the flexibility to enable our customers to build and offer  multiple product plans and allow users to register for those services  directly on the website or through multiple other methods:

  • A brandable, web-based registration page that can optionally process payment transactions at the time of sign-up
  • API (Application Programming Interface) integration to existing systems
  • A customized, branded sign-up CD
  • Bulk import of customer database files via the OSS’ administrative web interface
  • Our Help Desk analysts can take inbound calls from end users and process their immediate registration into the system.

We help you determine the registration method best suited to your needs and work with you to implement an efficient process.

Authentication

Our OSS provides critical authentication services that ensure the security of your network. Our authentication services:

  • Use a single log in for end users
  • RFC compliant RADIUS (authentication, authorization and accounting) by MAC address or username/password
  • Allow you to customize multiple RADIUS profiles and attributes
  • Support multiple domains on a single network
  • Support proxy RADIUS requests
  • Support diverse PPP authentication methods
  • Provide extensive RADIUS reporting
  • Accommodate unlimited RADIUS traffic

Service Provisioning

Service provisioning is the process of activating a request for an IP-based service and making that service available to an end user. Any provider looking to launch a new service can attest to the fact that new services often require integration to new systems. This integration work can consume valuable time and resources (which most companies don’t have) and ultimately lead to longer product release cycles. Let our service provisioning system take away those headaches and give you a competitive advantage by helping you launch new services faster than ever before.

Our OSS provides the following provisioning capabilities:

  • Automated, real-time provisioning of all services and applications hosted by Peacey Systems
  • Tight integration between provisioning and billing systems ensures the automated enforcement of business rules (i.e. suspension of services due to non-payment)
  • Ability to automate external provisioning request-response transactions with third party vendors. Transactions are sent via HTTP or HTTPS POST, and can support multiple message formats (i.e. form submissions, XML, SOAP). Separate actions may be assigned for the creation, updating, and deletion of end user accounts

Whether the services are hosted and provided directly by Peacey Systems, or if they’re provided by a third party vendor, our OSS can be the single provisioning engine that pulls everything together.

Account Management

Our OSS enables the powerful and convenient management of your end users and their data within one system. Our OSS system provides:

  • The ability to manage and communicate with end users based on multiple criteria (i.e. organizational units, service plans, etc.)
  • Customizable administrative access rights based on assignable permissions
  • The ability to add, remove and modify services and account information
  • Customer care components for basic end user troubleshooting (i.e. trouble tickets, account history, etc.)
  •  An end user web interface into the OSS to allow self management

Billing & Transaction Processing

Our real-time rating and billing module enables you to:

  • Support multiple business rules
  • Create innovative pricing schemes, discounts, and promotions to seize revenue opportunities
  • Introduce new IP-based applications without having to introduce a new billing system
  • Support one-off charges as well as recurring charges
  • Maintain tight integration between provisioned services and billing charges
  • Integrate with multi-level, multi-jurisdiction tax tables (CCH)

  • Control collections

Transaction processing provides:

  • Robust and secure payment processing capability that dramatically reduces the risk of Internet credit card fraud
  • Automated collection of payments via credit card or ECP (electronic check processing)
  • Real-time authorization and settlement

Reporting

Measurement improves performance. Our OSS’ extensive real-time, web-based reporting provides access to the data and information required for successful daily operations, as well as the continued analysis and improvement of your business processes.

Our reporting module enables you to:

  • Generate over 40 standard reports covering categories such as billing, revenue, domains, usage statistics, activations, services, etc.
  • Define custom reports by selecting and grouping the fields that you want to appear
  • Generate reports on a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis
  • Export data and reports in CSV, HTML, and PDF
  • Customize access to reports based on different administrative rights

API (Application Programming Interface)

The API is a transactional interface that allows you to integrate your existing systems with our OSS. The API gives you the power to leverage our OSS capabilities (i.e. provisioning, authentication, applications, etc.) while still maintaining control of your existing technology. This automated integration also enables you to benefit from our continued development of new features and applications.

  • Our API uses a combination of industry standards and protocols (XML, HTTPS, etc.)
  • The interface is implemented in a client/server model
  • The API Client is an application developed by you or a third-party vendor to interact with our API Server
  • Network communications are facilitated via the secure http (https) protocol over TCP/IP

6.0 — Physical Location & Environment

Head Office Location

Peacey Systems Head Office 1007 North Federal Hwy #227, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, 33304

 

Building Information

The particular building that houses Peacey Systems Data Center is a Telco grade, carrier-class building that also houses the major network hub for Eastern Canada. Taking advantage of the services offered by this site, all major carriers house pop locations within the building.  The building sits on bedrock and has been designed and built to earthquake building code standards. Several back-up diesel generators are operated by the building to ensure continuous access to electrical power.

Network Access

Peacey Systems employs dual redundant upstream network accesses from Peer1, a local network aggregator, and BigPipe. Both providers access the building through separate (and diverse) entry points with direct and uninterrupted fiber routes into the Peacey Systems data center. This constitutes full and true redundancy through diverse network service providers, physically diverse paths to the building, entries and terminations in the building, and paths to and into Peacey Systems’ data center.

Data Center Facility

The data center where both network access fibers terminate and which houses Peacey Systems’ network equipment possesses above industry standard facilities. A fire suppression system and dedicated air conditioning unit protect all equipment. Power redundancy and back up is provided by a Liebert UPS system located in the data center, as well as the emergency backup power provided by the building’s diesel generators.

Security

The entire Peacey Systems office is secured by electronic key-fob entry.  Additionally, the data center employs electronic key-fob plus user id/pass-code secure entry for a limited set of authorized Peacey Systems employees.  The data center also uses fire-stop/wire-mesh walls, and concrete floor and ceiling as further security measures.

  • Network and Systems Architecture
  • Risk Prevention
  • Peacey Systems’ network architecture employs redundant network feeds, internal network redundancy, load balanced / fault tolerant servers, and high-availability networked storage. Single connections and/or component/server failures will not result in loss of service
  • Monitoring
  • Peacey Systems’ custom-designed monitoring system notifies Peacey Systems staff 24x7x365 of outages and potential service degradation.  A failure of any individual component that may be non-service affecting or that affects the performance or availability of any end-user service will, through Peacey Systems’ 24×7 monitoring system and internal process, automatically notify Peacey Systems’ On-Call Engineer and automatically escalate through all notification levels. This eliminates human error or intervention in the notification and escalation process.
  • ARIN IP Space
  • All services that are provided by Peacey Systems are provided on Peacey Systems assigned ARIN IP space. This ensures that Peacey Systems services are provided in a network independent manner. This IP space is advertised to the Internet via BGPv4 with Peacey Systems Autonomous System Number (ASN).

Egress Links

Peacey Systems employs multiple network carriers in order to ensure network availability. Each provider is connected to Peacey Systems’ network via a physically independent Cisco router with dual redundant power supplies configured for HSRP and BGP4. Egress network connections to the Peacey Systems network are diverse not only in terms of upstream provider, but also in terms of distinct fiber paths within the building and diverse exit points out of the building.

Network Architecture

Peacey Systems network is designed and implemented with redundancy in all levels. Cross-connected redundant Cisco routers are configured with dual redundant power supplies, HSRP for fail-over and BGP4 in case of upstream network access interruption, degradation or failure.  Dual cross-connected Foundry 100MB-GigE Server Load Balancing switches sit between the Cisco routers and dual, cross-connected Cisco 2900 series layer 2 switches.  These layer 2 switches in turn are connected to dual redundant cross-connected Network Appliance storage pods as well as the virtual-server clusters which provide all services provided by Peacey Systems.

This network architecture ensures scalability, reliability, availability – no single points of failure exist.  It also allows, through virtualization of services, applications and Server Load Balancing, for real-time upgrades and maintenance without service disruption.

Services Architecture

Services provided to clients and end users are provided using Server Load Balancing technology. All services which are end-user facing are deployed in an n+1 redundant fashion, such that the failure of any given server or piece of network equipment will not result in a service or application failure or degradation.

OSS

The OSS system stores all of its information in a central database. The OSS system is not maintained on a single server, but rather is presented by a virtual server which is load balanced across several real servers. This ensures that the reliability of the system is not dependent upon a single real server. This load balancing functionality is provided by the network infrastructure that also provides all network connectivity to the systems. This server load balancing (SLB) not only provides redundancy and hence reliability, but also allows for scaling of the system. This scaling can increase the service capacity, and can be accomplished in real time without taking the systems off line. Also, maintenance can be performed on any single real server at any time without degrading the service offering.

Database

The database stores all account and security information for all users of the system. The database that is presented to the OSS system, and to the consumer services below it, is also maintained on a virtual server. Similar to the OSS system, the database system consists of several real servers. Each of these servers maintains an entire copy of all data, and the data additions and modifications are replicated in real time to the other database servers. This has the direct advantage of providing a highly reliable database infrastructure, which is both scalable and maintainable.

End-User Services

The end-user services interact with the database to retrieve user account information. For example, when a mail message arrives on a mail server, the database will be called to ensure the destination email address is valid.  The database is presented to consumer service servers in the same manner as to the OSS system, as a virtual server. As indicated, the virtualization of the database allows for a reliable, scalable and maintainable database.

Each individual end-user service, such as electronic mail or authentication, is also virtualized by the network infrastructure. As such, several real servers handle each service. This provides for fault tolerance should a single real server go out of service, but also enables each of these real servers to be taken out of the service rotation in order for maintenance to be carried out. This virtualization allows horizontal as well as vertical scaling techniques to be employed throughout the server, services and applications architecture.

The data that is delivered to the end-user service servers is stored on a centralized data storage repository. Centralized network storage is an essential component of the entire system and is accessible and fully redundant through the load balancing function of the network architecture.  The equipment used to accomplish this is industry best of breed. Peacey Systems employs Sun Microsystems servers, Cisco Systems’ routers and switches, Foundry Networks’ SLB switches and Network Appliance filers for data storage.
