Telecom · Product catalog
Telecom product catalog aligned with TM Forum
Model offerings, specifications, characteristics and variants as first-class schemas, then expose the catalog to every channel through one generated API.
Situation
Commercial catalogs are usually split between a billing system, a CMS and a set of spreadsheets. Channels then reimplement product rules, and every launch needs manual reconciliation.
Approach
Catalog models (offering, specification, characteristic, variant, category) are published as schemas, so the runtime tables, validation and relations are generated. Channels read the same REST or GraphQL surface, and changes flow through the publication pipeline with an audit trail.
What the platform changes
- One canonical catalog definition shared by every channel
- Relations and characteristics validated on the server, not per channel
- Launch changes reviewable as schema and content diffs
