SON Value Proposition
 It is about people!
• It is not about devices.
• People are mobile, and they use services not technologies.
• SON is about services and services are everywhere.
 It is about Globalization!
• Service supply chains are distributed and real time.
• Best of breed capabilities come from many industries.
 It is about Technology!
• Great technology melts into the background.
• Reusable infrastructure reduces cost of new services.
• Software and integration skills are keys to success.

Service Oriented Network
Best of Breed
Each domain brings a unique
capability to the SON.
Companies need to reassess their
needs against this new superset of
capabilities.
Web 2.0
Web Services
Broad Range of Applications
IT
Business Support Systems
Business Process Management
Telco 2.0
Native User Mobility
Multimedia Control
Common
Identity Management
IdM ties services to users and
facilitates cross domain service
blending.
Common Data Model
Identity Management
Data Model
The Data Model normalizes
frequently used data to improve
service enabler reusability.
Service Oriented Networking abstracts resources (applications, hardware, and networks)
into defined and reusable service enablers to facilitate cross-domain blending.

Factorial Value of SON
 Traditional networks increase in value by power law with the number of
connections. (Metcalf’s Law)
• ½ * n * (n – 1), n = connections
 Service inventories generate factorial value through permutations of
service enablers. (White’s Law)
• n! / (r! (n – r)!), n = enabler inventory, r = enablers per service

SON Forum Current Highlights
 A Service Enabler Characterization Technical
Report has been published.
• Service Enabler Characterization provides key
information such as lifecycle details, chargeability, and
capacity.
• These are details not contained in the functional
definition of a service enabler.
• A goal is to provide maximum flexibility in where service
enablers can be deployed or consumed. This document
does not address how Service Enablers get published or
discovered.
• SON solicited industry comments in November 2009.
 Two additional work items are progressing towards
completion:
• Common Namespace Requirements.
• 3rd Party Service Provider Interface Profile .
5
Strategic Direction
 SON Forum is focused on data aspects of service
architecture.
 Documents in the SON Forum support that view:
• Service Enabler Characterization.
• Common Namespace Requirements.
• 3rd Party Service Provider Interface Profile.
6
Challenges
 Service Oriented Networks is a new standards
area and substantial work remains to be done to
achieve a comprehensive view.
 There are multiple PSOs working in SON-related
areas. Harmonizing this work into a cohesive
service inventory is a significant task.
 Horizontal frameworks such as SONs that
optimize long term reusability continue to compete
with integrated silo solutions that optimize first
service delivery.
7
Next Steps/Actions
 Progress other priority areas to completion
by end of 2010.
 SON Forum technical program.
• Next face to face meeting:
18 October 2010
Washington, DC

Proposed Resolution
 ATIS proposes a new Resolution on Service
Oriented Networks contained in
GSC15-PLEN-86.

Service Oriented Networks (ATIS)
Summary
 Presentations
• 2 SON contributions from CCSA (60) and ATIS (81).
 Summary
• Frameworks facilitate integration and adaptation of service enablers
 A minimum set of common functions is required in the framework
 These frameworks allow interworking across technologies: IMS, SOA,
Web 2.0, Cloud, etc.
• Service Providers use the framework to integrate service
inventories into multiple products
• Support for flexible reuse of service enablers allows the same
functions to be used for multiple retail and wholesale products
• Service Oriented Networks are structured cloud implementations
 Resolution
• Proposed new Resolution from ATIS (GSC15-PLEN-86)

User preferences should be separated from the application and included with the user profile.

Technology Centric
Services are delivered
through common
transport.
Data is not shared across
applications so the customer must
manually input and synchronize
preferences, contacts, and other
metadata.
The customer experience is
fragmented because each
service requires a separate
login and is in a distinct silo.

User Centric
PIM
Presence
User
Profile
Service
Interaction
Services are delivered
through common
transport.
Key data is shared across
applications.
The services work together in a
single user experience.
The user experience is unified
by a common SON service
enabler, profile, and
metadata.
The number of discrete
service experiences increase
as a factorial function of the
service inventory.

Globalization – Service Supply Chain
 The traditional supply chain integrates raw materials into a
finished product that is delivered to a customer.
• Globalization facilitates multiple suppliers with specialized roles
working together in bringing a product to market.
 Service supply chains operate in a similar way except there
is real time interaction between the suppliers during service
invocation.
 The ability to manage the service supply chain is a core
competency of SON companies.
