The SDP Alliance brings together the most important
elements of a Service Delivery Platform (SDP) and offers them either as
a unified whole or in a subset of category-defining products.
The adoption of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) in the SDP simplifies
enabler deployment and facilitates other SDP requirements for composition,
reuse, delegation, orchestration, policy enforcement and business/operation
process adherence and integration.
Key to the adoption of the SDP SOA-based approach, is the fact that it
is not tied to a specific technology. It focuses on the composition and
orchestration of enablers with defined interfaces that can be called to
perform their tasks under standard mechanisms, without the service having
pre-knowledge of the calling enabler, and without the application having
or needing knowledge of how the called enabler actually performs its tasks.
Following the recent announcement that Mobility Data Systems has joined The SDP Alliance, the revised architecture has yet to be published on this website. Please check back soon.
