What is GSMA
Open Gateway?
A global framework of open network APIs for the telecom and developer ecosystem
GSMA Open Gateway is a global framework of common network APIs designed to provide developers and cloud providers with universal access to mobile operator networks.
By exposing consistent network capabilities through standardised APIs, GSMA Open Gateway enables faster service development, simpler integration, and seamless deployment across the world’s largest connectivity platform.
Who is GSMA Open Gateway for?
- Application and software developers
- Content and gaming providers
- Mobile network operators and telecom suppliers
- Cloud providers and digital platforms
- Enterprise customers
- End customers and consumers
What are the benefits of GSMA Open Gateway?
GSMA Open Gateway helps cloud providers and developers enhance existing services and deploy new services faster by providing a single, consistent point of access to the world’s largest connectivity platform.
The whole mobile ecosystem benefits. The new 5G network capabilities will be exposed through data service APIs which are more readily available across global telecom networks and countries, making it seamless and easy to access within a controlled and federated market.
This is achieved through common, northbound service APIs, supported by the CAMARA Project, which expose mobile operators’ network capabilities in a consistent, interoperable and federated way. The benefits of the GSMA open gateway initiative include:
- Seamless customer experience
- Accelerated technology development, innovation and commercial adoption (minimising implementation effort)
- Accelerated education and promotion
- Support of application portability
