The registry will be evolved with cloud-native application development services from the Ericsson Operations Engine portfolio during the five-year deal – including the ability to design, develop and test new software features for the SMS/800 TFN Registry application. The business-critical application is central to Somos’ mandate to provide trusted, reliable and modern Toll-Free Number registry services to its customers.
