TM Forum APIs provide an effective solution to today’s application integration challenges. Several sets of APIs are available, including OSS/J (OSS Through Java) Java, XML, and Web Service APIs, MTNM (Multi-Technology Network Management) Corba APIs, and MTOSI (Multi-Technology Operation System Interface) XML APIs. This workshop provides an overview of each API set along with guidelines to help an application developer and/or integrator choose the appropriate API(s) to use. |
