The User Services Platform (USP) is a collection of specifications by the Broadband Forum that define a standardized mechanism by which a network of controllers and agents communicate to activate, manage, monitor, diagnose, and control a broadband user’s network enabled services. This includes a wide array of use cases including managed broadband services, smart home and smart building applications, small business services, and management of multi-tenant facilities. The project defines a data model, architecture, security and communications protocol to transform consumer broadband networks into an intelligent platform for the development, deployment, and support of broadband enabled applications and services. It expands the concepts explored in TR-069 device management towards overall service management, leveraging technologies such as IoT, NFV and SDN in concert with other standards organizations. This project is currently under development. This page will see updates as the platform is published.
