Abstract:
A service order gateway node between a data input device and a plurality of database network elements of a wireless communications system each storing subscriber permanent and temporary data, the service order gateway node comprising logic for supporting communications between the data input device and the plurality of database network elements, the service order gateway node's logic functioning to:receive a request from the data input device to update permanent data that is redundantly stored in certain ones of the plurality of database network elements;identify the certain ones of the plurality of database network elements that must be redundantly updated in order to respond to the received request;generate data update messages, wherein each of the generated data update messages is specifically tailored to be understood by one of the identified certain ones of the database network elements; andtransmit the generated data update messages from the service order gateway node to contact each of the identified certain ones of the database network elements without passing through another database network element to effectuate redundant permanent data updating in response to the received request.
