Telematrix

The telecommunications industry also requires some customizable services. Magyar Telekom offers its Telematrix service package to business subscribers who own a mobile fleet.

Customisation requires special architectural considerations when providing telecommunication services. The tendency is that the telephone exchanges making the connections are becoming more intelligent. Yet, the needs of telecom providers and self-service operation can be hardly combined with the option of the management functionality of telephone exchanges. In the Telematrix system, business intelligence is provided by our own database based solution to the centre. Our highly reliable, redundant system is still running successfully after changes to the GUI and the central platform.

Ruby Inc. delivered the Service Delivery Platform (SDP) database component of the Telematrix system. SDP is responsible for the high level of control of the mobile network traffic as well as of specific calls. Such high-profile tasks include, for instance, the intelligent, location and time based management of call lists and call forwarding.

The SDP Oracle database runs under Linux operating system. The business logic we developed uses PL/SQL stored procedures.

This architecture enables the SDP database to be used concurrently on multiple Oracle servers. It also makes otherwise potentially problematic version changes of teh Oracle database manager completely trouble-free.
