Summary

Web-based platforms and the viral distribution of applications via developer communities have changed the traditional service provider business model for good. However, service exposure and software developer kits (SDKs) present service providers with an opportunity to become a hub for an extended, open and collaborative application developer environment. Service exposure allows service providers to reap the benefits of viral distribution, and at the same time control access, and maintain security measures and policy management within their network and IT assets. Principal analyst Clare McCarthy reviews the business benefits from Telecom Italia's approach to service exposure.
