A method of provisioning a plurality of applications from different application developer systems to a network provider system comprises establishing a plurality of service accounts for a corresponding plurality of application service provider systems, receiving a plurality of API interfaces from the plurality of application service provider systems, integrating, by the processor system, each of the plurality of API interfaces with a unified services platform API interface, receiving a provider API interfaces for a network provider system, and integrating the provider API interface with the unified services platform API interface. The plurality of application service provider systems provide services for use in association with a telephone number of a subscriber of telecommunication services. At least two of the API interfaces are different, and at least one of the plurality of API interfaces from the plurality of application service provider systems is not compatible with the provider API interface.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus for retrieving and providing voice mail messages from a server are described. In accordance with the invention voice mail messages may be retrieved via requests made via a set top box. Voice mail messages are retrieved in response to the request from a voice mail server which is also accessible via the telephone network. Retrieved voice mail is transcoded and included in a video on demand (VOD) file. Text, call ID information and/or other information as, e.g., an automatically generated transcript of the voice mail message, may be included in the VOD file. The VOD file is supplied to a VOD server which provides the file including the message to the set top box for display. A user can view the messages and switch from viewing one message to the next by using video play back commands.
摘要:
A method and system for operating a multitenancy telephony system including a call queue that stores call requests received from a plurality of users; an expandable and contractible telephony resource cluster that establishes call sessions for call requests; a analysis system that calculates capacity requirements of the system; a resource allocator that manages the scaling and operation of the telephony resource cluster; and a plurality of telephony network channels that are used as telephony communication channels for call sessions.

Embodiments are configured to provide reminders associated with communications and other events. In an embodiment, components of a communication system can operate to generate, maintain, and implement reminders associated with communications and other events. A reminder can be automatically generated and scheduled for one or more users of the communication system when a user is unavailable or unable to take a call. Reminders can be generated to include information which can be used to establish a communication event for a subsequent communication associated with each reminder.
