  • Patent number: 11966744
    Abstract: A system and method may manage traffic to software applications that ingest operations into an asynchronous queue when those operations are required to execute in a synchronous manner. An identifier may be retrieved from data corresponding to each client operation. A process distribution module may be placed in front of the two incompatible systems/applications to inspect each data payload and intelligently distribute the transactions to each instance based on a well-defined algorithm (e.g., even/odd, last digit, etc.). Synchronous execution may then occur according to a timestamp for each operation.

  • Publication number: 20240129707
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques, devices, and systems for synchronizing nodes that are utilized to provide services in a telecommunication network that includes a fifth generation (5G) network, and other types of networks. The nodes can be utilized to store supplementary service settings. A node of the 5G network that stores the supplementary service settings can be a unified data management (UDM). The UDM can be synchronized with a node (e.g., a home subscriber server (HSS)) that stores supplementary service settings in a long-term evolution (LTE) network, and/or a node (e.g., a home location register (HLR)) that stores supplementary service settings in a second generation (2G)/third generation (3G) network.

  • Publication number: 20240040353
    Abstract: A method for managing network services for a cellular network provider. The method includes receiving, via a GUI, a query input of an MSISDN number associated with a subscriber and querying a first external system using the MSISDN. In response to the query of the first external system, the method includes receiving a first set of subscriber information. The method includes querying a second external system using the MSISDN number to determine an IMSI number associated with the subscriber, and querying a third external system using the IMSI number. In response to the query of the third external system with the IMSI number, the method includes receiving a second set of subscriber information and populating one or more fields of the GUI with the first and second set of subscriber information.
