How does TM Forum Open API Project work impact Member businesses and the wider industry? We had a productive few days last week at the Open API Spec Jam in Vienna, hosted by Members AWS for Telecom and Beyond Now.

Congratulations to AT&T on becoming the first US carrier to achieve ‘Running on ODA’ accreditation for its MVNx Ecosystems Group. Open Digital Architecture (ODA) replaces traditional monolithic software stacks with a ‘plug and play’ component-based modular architecture that underpins rapid product and service innovation. By committing to TM Forum’s industry standard ODA and Open APIs, AT&T is giving its Mobile Virtual Network Operator customers a common framework on which to build their own branded mobile services, without having to invest in the expensive infrastructure typically required to operate a mobile network.
