Ericsson Service Innovation Framework
Ericsson Service Innovation Framework is Ericsson's architecture to deliver an ecosystem for exposing both operator
and partner product offers combined with operator service management
capabilities. ESIF has been designed to deliver catalog driven, componentized
product and service innovation across domains and process flows of the
communication service providers. Operators can utilize ESIF to create new
business through business partners and to drive new revenues by enabling
innovative application development of both operator's and partner's capabilities.
The key features of the solution include the ability to facilitate composition
and creation of the network-based service logic, the inclusion of service
management for fulfillment, charging and policies and exposure of all functions
as APIs. The ESIF solution provides a storefront for easy purchase of APIs for
new application development and the self-care access to monitor usage.
The framework enables the ecosystem approach to the creation and storefront
sales of web service APIs. The back-end operations are enhanced with a
methodology to enable component based catalog driven operations for all
service types. This methodology improves the ability to model, productize and
implement a digital service.
