Oracle made another move to target telecommunications providers Tuesday, unveiling plans for a telecom service delivery platform (SDP).
The move comes less than a week after the database and applications vendor announced its intention to buy Portal Software, a maker of billing and revenue management software for the communications and media industries, for $220 million.
Oracle is designing the SDP for use by carriers, network operators, and systems integrators to help them move to SOA (service-oriented architecture), according to a release.
