Cloud Native Digital Commerce
Purpose Built to Scale in Every Environment
Cloud Native, Because Your Future Depends on It
Why is cloud native rating and charging essential to success with agile, 5G monetization?
Infinite Scalability
Network elasticity to support charging for the explosion of devices that are coming.
Dynamic Configurability
Web-scale architecture to automate development and deployment of highly targeted service offerings.
Unprecedented Resiliency
Leveraging a microservices-based architecture to ensure high availability under load.
MATRIXX Converged Charging System
Architected, developed and deployed to scale in response to business needs and network demands
Microservices based, container architecture
scales as needed, harnessing open source tools to optimize resource utilization and automate operational functions
Business logic
executes in parallel streams, harnessing normalization to improve performance with decision tables
Network gateways
may be deployed at the edge and scale independently for event ingestion and load balancing
Stateful data
is managed in all-primary clusters to ensure ACID compliance resilience with ultra-low latency performance
MATRIXX Cloud Native Design
Launch quickly, respond rapidly and heal automatically.
Containers
MATRIXX Digital Commerce deploys microservices as containers for resource isolation and dependency management.
Container Orchestration
Kubernetes enable management of services in a resource pool abstracted from the underlying hardware.
Service Mesh
Facilitate service-to-service communication decoupled from application code in a highly dynamic cloud environment.
MATRIXX | Kubernetes Cloud Native Architecture
1. Business API Gateway
Provides a secure, configurable and extensible REST API gateway for northbound apps and OSS/BSS integrations.
2. Network Gateway(s)
Network interaction is handled through microservices involving HTTP/2, RESTful and other network protocols including Diameter.
3. Inbound Routing
Load balances and routes all requests to the correct processing pod and manages all responses to the initiator.
4a. Rating Processing Logic
Execute the business logic to process the charging and policy request and create a response. Rate calculations and policy decisions are made extremely quickly and efficiently using linear equations — this MATRIXX technology allows for high throughput and low latencies regardless of whether the pricing model is simple or very complex.
4b. In-Memory Database
Object-oriented database, optimized specifically for telecom style rating and charging volumes. The non-locking transaction model allows multiple reads and updates to the same objects to occur simultaneously while maintaining full transactional integrity and highly consistent latency.
5. Publishing and Auditing
Reliably publish events to the event repository, audit files and high volume, low latency streaming targets.
6. Checkpoint Creation
Processes offline transaction files to periodically recreate a full image of the database and write checkpoint images to be used in the case of disaster recovery and cold start.
7. Transaction Logs, Event Files, Checkpoints
Short-term storage of events and to archive transaction-processing data. The archived data is used during system start-up.
8. Active MQ
Delivers outbound integration to external services.
9. Notifications
Generates templated human-readable messages and delivers to end-customers via push notifications, SMS or email.
10. Payment Gateway
Connects to various payment providers to enable real-time purchases, scheduled payments and threshold-triggered recharges.
11. Event Streaming
Sends event stream data, generated from MATRIXX DCP to consumers, such as Kafka, Google Pub/Sub and ActiveMQ.
12. Event Repository
Long-term storage of events in a database that is available for API query from self-care or other systems and used for general ledger processing to produce daily summary data.
