Position: ZSmart Resource Management
Highlights
Whether the utilization of telecom products and organization resources are effective, is becoming one of the crucial issues of improving operators’ core competitive power when today differentiation of network technologies are rapidly minimizing.
The resources and technologies are comparatively hard to change, while management skills remain alive and can be reformed. The operators’ capability in integrating their own resources through advanced platforms relies heavily on the resources management that is supposed to satisfy operators’ rapid deployment and delivery of new services demands.
The resources management is the basic function of carrying out unified business resources allocation and management, which ensures the efficiency of service deployment.
ZSmart Resource Management, a core product of ZSmart Suite, provides valid data resources for the customer care system and order management system to power the daily business operation and maintenance.
ZSmart Resource Management is targeted at the dynamic and multi-level management of the logic resources (e.g. IP addresses) and part of the physical resources (e.g. SIM cards and terminal facilities), the resources generation, allocation, reservation, occupying, releasing and reclaiming, and the data processing of the resources construction and practical operation.
Benefits
- Centralized Management and Unified Configuration
ZSmart Resource Management adopts a unified distribution and configurable procedure to execute the centralized management of SIM cards, numbers, IP addresses, address resources and terminal facilities. - Dynamic Establishment of Correlative Relationship between Products and Resources
It is a critical part of ZSmart to realize rapid new products deployment. The relationship between a product and a type of resources can be defined easily to ensure the specified resources support for the product. - Friendly and Simplified Operation Interface
The simplest operation interface minimizes the complicacy of resources configuration. - Batch Processing
Data entry in batches of segments or texts reduces personnel cost. - Classified Number Resource
The services can be handled in terms of the number classification and the numbers of different levels can be matched with different tariffs - High Security
The security of resources allocation is a key criterion of the performance of the resource management systems. All resources under the control of ZSmart Resource Management directly correspond to the operational personnel, while not all system users have free access to any resources and detailed log records will be generated for every operation.
Typical Resource Process
The resources allocation and configuration process is illustrated in the figure below with the SIM card as the example.
