Hi everybody!
We are starting to implement open apis for stock management during ordering and delivery process (check availability, reserve, use).
I guess I´m pretty sure about the difference between TMF687 stock management (for commercial products) and TMF685 resource pool managment (for logical & physical resources)
I guess (and I hope...) I'm quite sure that we have to implement both apis, because the product that the customer is buying could have a combination of products and resources:
- A device (product) with a mobile plan & line number (resource)
- A VoLTE service, with a simcard (resource) and a modem (resource)
But I'm a bit confused about resource management, because I have read some threads about drastic changes on TMF685, but no news about it... So:
Should I use TMF685 as is?
Should I use TMF685 resources (/reservation, /resource pool) but apply them to resourceCollection object (there is a thread about this...)?
Should I use TMF687 as the basis of a new api similar to TMF685, but based on resource object instead of product object?
Is there any news about tmf685 evolution?
Thanks in advance,
Eduardo
