System and method for supporting session threshold for IMS SCIM/service brokering

摘要

In accordance with various embodiments, systems and methods that integrate threshold management into a SCIM/Service Broker are provided. Such a system can include a plurality of applications, executing on one or more application servers. The system can also include a SCIM/Service Broker which is operable to manage a threshold set by the applications. Each application can determine an application threshold, a current threshold and a met threshold. When an application receives a message from the SCIM/Service Broker, the application can determine if the met threshold exists and, if the met threshold exists, update the application threshold accordingly. The application can also determine if the application threshold has been met, and if the application threshold has been met, execute business logic associated with the application threshold and set a new application threshold. The application sends a request to SCIM/Service Broker requesting a new current threshold value be set.

1. A system that integrates threshold management into a Service Capability interaction Manager (SCIM), comprising:
a plurality of applications, executing on one or more application servers, wherein each application server executes on one or more microprocessors; a SCIM configured to manage a current threshold set by the plurality of applications, and to report a reported met threshold; and wherein each application maintains an associated application threshold, an associated current threshold indicative of the current threshold set by the plurality of applications at the SCIM, and an associated met threshold indicative of a most resent reported met threshold reported by the SCIM; wherein based on an application from the plurality of applications receiving a message from the SCIM including the reported met threshold, the application:
updates the associated application threshold accordingly in response to the reported met threshold,determines, in response to the reported met threshold, if the associated application threshold has been met, andif the associated application threshold has been met, executes business logic associated with the associated application threshold and sets a new associated application threshold, and sends a request to the SCIM requesting a new current threshold value be set.
