An operational support system (OSS) which provisions a virtual circuit automatically potentially without requiring any manual intervention. The virtual circuit may be provisioned upon the reception of an order for a connection from a user location to a target network. The OSS is particulary useful to provision permanent virtual connections (PVC) on service provider networks providing high bandwidth connections to user locations on local loops.

An application model automates deployment of an application. In one embodiment, the application model includes a static description of the application and a run-time description of the application. Deployment phases, such as installation, configuration and activation of the application are executed according to the application model.

A descriptor for a multitier compute infrastructure is provided. A multitier topology map contains an inventory of network tier, application tier, and compute tier components and the relationships among the components. A business service can be defined as a logical grouping of components that transactionally implement a business process. A service descriptor includes the component dependencies that define the business service. The business service leverages the component dependencies to provide cross-tier visibility of the business process and performance analysis features.

A multitier topology map describes a multitier compute infrastructure. The multitier topology map identifies components from at least two different tiers of the multitier compute infrastructure and indicates relationships between components including at least one cross-tier relationship between components. An interface module accesses the multitier topology map.

A topology of a multitier compute infrastructure is automatically discovered. Discovery can be roughly divided into two phases. In one phase, components and physical relationships are discovered. In the other phase, non-physical relationships between the components are deduced. The second phase typically is based in part on information obtained in the first phase. In one application, the components and relationships that are discovered/deduced are used to build a map of the multitier compute infrastructure.

An operational support system (OSS) processing orders for high bandwidth connections on based on digital subscriber loop (DSL) technology. The OSS pre-qualifies the services based on data identifying a user location and on the availability of any resources which may be needed exclusively for the user location to provide the service. A port on a DSL access multiplexor (DSLAM) is an example of such a resource. By reserving such resources around (before or after) the pre-qualification stage, the OSS may ensure that the service order can be fulfilled with an enhanced probability.

A multi-brand loyalty server provides real-time product or service suggestions to customers based on transaction data. The multi-brand loyalty server receives customer information and transaction data from a merchant device(s) located at a merchant subscriber's premises. A loyalty event, such as a promotion or reward for a suggested product or service, is determined based on the transaction data. Information about a suggested merchant and the loyalty event is sent to a mobile device operated by the customer in order to encourage him to make a purchase from the suggested merchant.
