Who's SID?
SID stands for Shared Information and Data, is TMForum's conceptualized data structure for managing various OSS from an IS perspective. The TM Forum Information Framework (SID) provides the common language for communicating the concerns of the four major groups of constituents represented by the four NGOSS Views. Used in combination with the Business Process Framework (eTOM) and activity descriptions it becomes possible to create a bridge between the business and Information Technology groups thereby providing definitions that are understandable by the business, but are also rigorous enough to be used for software development.
Why SID?
Competition in the Telecom market results in service providers to offer new and innovative products – managed by complex OSS platforms/tools. As the array widens, the different OSS have different data requirements – resulting in a cause to decentralize operations and support from IS (Information System) perspective.
TMForum’s SID is a standardized enterprise data structure designed to manage this requirement across various platforms.
