Devices, methods, and computer readable storage devices for providing application services

摘要

Application services associated with a mobile communication device are facilitated by a mediator gateway. A request for providing an application service is received by the mediator gateway. The request is associated with a mobile communication device. The mediator gateway selects a network among a plurality of networks associated with different carriers to which to send the request. The request is translated into an application programming interface request that is specific to a carrier associated with the selected network. The application programming interface request is sent to an application programming interface gateway associated with the carrier that is associated with the selected network.

主权项

1. A mediator gateway device, comprising:
a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising:
receiving, from an enterprise server device, request data representing a request for providing an application service, wherein the request is associated with a mobile communication device, wherein the mediator gateway device couples the enterprise server device to gateway devices of networks that employ different cellular technologies and are associated with different cellular carrier identities;storing network status data indicative of respective network statuses for the networks, wherein a network status of the network statuses is employable to determine a performance characteristic of network devices of a network of the networks;based on the network status data, selecting a gateway device of the gateway devices via which the request data is to be sent to the mobile communication device; andbased on defined rule data, selecting a route via which response data representing a response to the request is to be sent from the mobile communication device to the enterprise server device, wherein the selecting comprises selecting the route prior to receiving the response data and wherein the route is selected from a first route via the mediator gateway device and a second route that bypasses the mediator gateway device.
