Embodiment Construction

[0029] Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail by referring to exemplary embodiments and drawings. The illustrated embodiments relate to locating subscription data in a multi-tenant network, for example a communication network according to the 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) specifications. It is to be understood, however, that the concepts described herein are applicable to other types of multi-tenant networks as well.

[0030] figure 1 A multi-tenant network is schematically shown in which concepts according to embodiments of the present invention can be applied.

[0031] As shown, the multi-tenant network includes a shared domain 100, a first tenant-specific domain 200A, and a second tenant-specific domain 200B.

[0032] The shared domain 100 is shared by multiple tenants. In the example shown, the multiple tenants are a first tenant and a second tenant, which may be different VNOs or different country-specific operators of a multi...

Abstract

For locating subscription data in a multi-tenant network, a request to be processed on the basis of subscription data is received in a subscription data locator (110). The subscription data locator (110) obtains an identity of a tenant-specific database (220A, 220B) maintaining the subscription data. The subscription data locator (110) then embeds the identity of the tenant-specific database (220A, 220B) in the request and forwards the request to a front-end (150-1, 150-n). The front-end (150-1, 150-n) then selects the tenant-specific database (220A, 220B) on the basis of the embedded identity and accesses the selected tenant-specific database when processing the request.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to techniques for locating subscription data in a multi-tenant network. Background technique [0002] Multi-tenancy refers to a principle, eg in software architecture or telecommunication networks, where a single infrastructure is made available to multiple clients, called tenants. In a telecommunications network, a tenant may be a network operator, such as a virtual network operator (VNO) or a country-specific operating company of a multinational network. [0003] A VNO is a company that provides telecommunications services but does not necessarily have all the infrastructure needed to provide those services. Furthermore, for mobile services, a VNO typically does not have its own licensed radio frequency allocation. Instead, the VNO uses the network resources provided by the network operator based on a commercial agreement between the VNO and another network operator. [0004] A multinational network operator is an ope...
