Description

A management method in integrated service management system for high-speed data networks

The present invention relates to a high-speed information network service management system, and more particularly, to a user (high-speed information network operator, statistics / analysis information related to connection and NAP associated with a subscriber joined to a high-speed information network service management system). The report management method in the high-speed information and communication network service management system to efficiently generate the report to the chief executive officer, marketing staff, etc.).

In the existing report function, a program must be produced separately according to each report type in order to prepare a plurality of reports. In this case, the information and form included in the report is fixed. In this case, the modification of the information and the form has a disadvantage of low efficiency and flexibility because a lot of rework is performed.

In addition, if you want to generate a report as a web document in the form of HTML, the performance of the system is generated to generate a report when many users use the web and database at the same time or when a large amount of data needs to be processed. In other words, there was an inefficient problem in terms of report retrieval or the system itself.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and the report template generation and management supporting the selection and reuse of information to be shown in the report, the generation and management of the web form report using the template, and also the load of the system at the time of generating the report. Report in a high-speed information and communication network service management system that can effectively produce and store a series of automated reports that are processed and displayed in a web form when providing a web-based report after storing it in a log form to reduce the The purpose is to provide a management method.

The present invention for achieving the above object is a first step of generating a periodic template for generating a periodic report with a periodicity and a custom template for generating a custom report according to the user's temporary selection, delete and search; A second step of accessing various statistical databases according to the report template to generate a log of information to be used in a web report and generating meta information for the corresponding report by referring to the report template in the first step; If you want to see the report, it characterized in that it comprises a third process of reading the information to be used in the report stored as a log and dynamically processed into a web form.

Hereinafter, the control method will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a schematic diagram of a report function for effectively producing and storing a report in a high-speed information communication network service management system. The client web browser (1), the CSSM system operator GUI (2), the web server (3), and a report storage medium ( 4), the CSSM report processing unit 5, the statistical processing unit 6 and the database (7).

The CSSM system operator GUI 2 includes an embedded web browser 2a and a report / report template management screen 2b. The web server 3 is composed of an HTML conversion unit 3a and a report query unit 3b. The CSSM report processor 5 includes a report manager 5a and a report generator 5b.

The CSSM system operator GUI 2 requests a report template manager 5c of the CSSM report processing unit 5 to manage a function such as creation, deletion, and retrieval, and a function for easily generating an on-demand or periodic report template. Through the received template information, the report template manager 5c supports management functions such as creation, deletion, and retrieval while recording the on-demand or periodic template in the database 7.

In addition, the CSSM system operator GUI 2 requests the report manager 5a to generate an on-demand report using the retrieved template. The report manager 5a then transmits the meta information of the template having the actual report item to the report creator 5b and requests the report to be generated.

Here, the on-demand report generation is notified to the report manager 5a when a series of tasks related to configuration information, performance, and failure are completed by the statistics processing unit 6, and the report manager 5a sends a report template manager 5c to it. The periodic template related to the configuration information, performance, and failure is searched for, and if there is a corresponding template, the report generator 5b generates a request for generation. The report generator 5b requests the report template manager 5c for a list of report items using the meta information of the given template, has the result, and takes statistical data from the database 6a and processes it into a report log form. Store the file in a specific directory (4).

In addition, report and report template management (2b) can request the delete and search functions from the report administrator. When actually accessing a report, the embedded web browser 2a or the client web browser 1 accesses the web server 3. When the report is accessed through the web server 3, the report is transmitted to the web browser by using an HTML converter 3a which processes the report into an HTML format dynamically by using the report storage medium 4. In addition, the web browser (1, 2a) is linked with the report manager (5a) to support the report search function.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a management flow for creating, deleting, and retrieving on-demand and periodic report templates for the template manager 5c.

When a template insertion request comes from the report template management screen (2b), the report template manager (5b) assigns a template ID to the report template, records the database template information, and provides meta information so that the detailed information on the report template can be kept. Hold (S1).

At this time, when a search request is received, the report template ID is searched according to a condition, and meta information according to the searched template ID is transmitted, and detailed template information is transmitted when requesting detailed information. In the report management screen 2b, a part of the searched template is modified (in this case, on demand or periodic), and the report generator 5b is requested to generate an on-demand report. The delete operation searches for the template and, if present, deletes the template information and the template meta information at the same time (S2, S3).

FIG. 3A is a diagram illustrating a flow for generating and managing a periodic report. First, the report manager 5a generates information about daily, periodic, and monthly information on configuration, failure, and performance statistics from the statistics processing unit 6. When notified, the report manager 5a requests the report generator 5b to generate a periodic report. The report generator 5b then inquires a list of related periodic templates from the report template manager 5c (S4).

At this time, if there is a list of periodic templates in step S4, the report template manager 5c is requested for detailed information on the associated template, the report ID is given based on the template information, and the relevant data is extracted from the statistical database. Thereafter, the extracted database information is used to generate a log file 4 for generating a web-based report. The report generator 5b delivers the generated periodic template list to the report manager 5a. The report manager 5a gives a report ID to the generated report and generates meta information (S5).

3B shows the flow for generating an on-demand report. First, it is determined whether to use a template in the management screen 2b. First, in the case of using a template, the management screen 2b requests a report template list to be inquired from the report template manager 5c, and then makes a report generation request to the report generator 5b for the template. The report manager 5a then assigns a report ID and instructs the report generator 5b to generate a report using the template. The report generator 5b inquires detailed information about the related template from the report template manager 5c and extracts related data from the database 7 based on the template information (S6).

On the other hand, when the template is not used, the report management screen delivers the same information as the report template to the report manager 5a, and the report manager 5a gives the report ID and requests the report generator 5b to generate the report. do. The report generator 5b extracts relevant data from the database based on the template information transmitted from the operator screen (S7).

As described above, the report generator 5b receiving the data information extracted in steps S6 and S7 generates log data for generating a web-based report using the extracted data information, and completes the generation to the report manager 5a. Notify. The report manager 5a gives a report ID to the generated report and generates meta information (S8).

FIG. 3C is a flow for managing a report. In the case of an inquiry, a report retrieval device 3b in the operator screen 2 or a web server requests a query from the report manager 5a according to conditions for a report currently generated. do. Detailed view of the report list is possible through the web browser through the detailed view of the report (S9).

Deletion is possible only on the operator screen 2. Upon request for deletion, the report manager 5a deletes the report, deletes the report log data 4, deletes the report metadata information from the database 7 and notifies the result (S10).

In the case of the report detail view, the report URL is notified to the web browser embedded in the CSSM operator's screen, and the web server processes the report according to the corresponding URL and outputs the report in a web format (S11).

4 shows a flow of a web report inquiries in a web browser. The browser 2a embedded in the operator management screen 2 is built into the report generator, that is, the operator to access the report, and its function is the same as that of the general web browser 1. The user's web browser requests a report file from the web server 3. The HTML converter 3a reads the log file for the report, dynamically constructs it in HTML format, generates the report file, and sends it to the browser. The browser can request a report retrieval. In addition, the report retrieving device 3b delivers a list of reports according to conditions in association with the report manager.

The present invention provides a report that provides statistics (analytics for high-speed information network operators, chief executive officers, marketing personnel, etc.) to users (high-speed information network operators, chief executive officers, marketing staff, etc.) for NAP and connections related to subscribers subscribed to the high-speed information network in the high-speed information network service management system. It is related to how to create a report, so that an operator can easily define and create a report of his or her desired form, and present the analysis and status of the service more efficiently to users through a web form report to network operators. Helps you make better decisions
