Charging method, system and charging trigger gear

Abstract

The invention embodiment discloses a charging method, a charging system and a charging triggering device. The method comprises the following steps: first, to receive the service message; second, to structure the charging request according to the service message and the stored configuration information of the system, and to send the charging request to the charging subsystem; third, to receive theprocessing result message of the charging request from the charging subsystem, and to process the received service message according to the processing result message of the charging request. The invention is characterized in that a reliable charging triggering device is arranged between the service subsystem and the user end , and can send the charging request to the charging subsystem to generate actual chagrining when the user end is using the service. The invention has the advantages of avoiding fraudulent charging request, realizing multiple charging modes and better reflecting the valuesof different services.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of data communication, in particular to a charging method, system and charging triggering device. Background technique [0002] When users need to have their own servers such as web, email or FTP, they can adopt two methods: one is to build the service by themselves, or host the service. The so-called hosting (Hosting) refers to the establishment of business systems by operators or the establishment of business systems by operators and partners, and users only need to pay a certain fee to directly use these business systems, instead of building a set by themselves. [0003] In order to charge the user a reasonable usage fee, the provider of the hosting service needs to charge the user for using the hosting service. At present, there are certain problems in the billing of IT hosting services: if the business subsystem is allowed to trigger billing, then there may be billing fraud in this cooperatively operated hosting...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

At present, there are certain problems in the billing of IT hosting services: if the business subsystem triggers billing, then there may be billing fraud in this cooperatively operated hosting business, for example, users actually only use the business 5 minutes, and when the business subsystem reports to the billing subsystem managed by the operator, due to the possible benefits related to the service system provider (that is, the partner with the operator), the business system may report the user's usage 10 minutes

This billing method is too simple, and it cannot realize the billing of the user's service duration, frequency, traffic, etc., and cannot well reflect the value of different services.
