Jataayu Provisioning Platform [jOTA] brings the power of device provisioning and handset management for MMS and WAP. Over-the-Air provisioning is a critical element in service deployment and in WAP 2.0 has been made a integral part of the specification.

jOTA provides comprehensive provisioning capabilities for both proprietary as well as standard based WAP/MMS phones. The system is scalable, portable and offers high performance.

It supports WAP 2.0 provisioning specification and also'proprietary' WAP provisioning specifications of Nokia, Ericsson. As shown in the figure, the Provisioning Manager is the core engine of the provisioning system. Its function is to create OTA setting profiles, generate Provisioning XML documents, encode using WBXML specifications, and deliver them through SMS or WAP channels. The Interface Server will be implemented as a TCP/IP service. The Provisioning Client API is a C/C++ API library for requesting content profiles creation and modification, delivering provisioning content document to a specified mobile number. The admin interface, due to its web-based nature, can be accessed from a remote system if the network permits routing of requests to this system from remote stations.
