Abstract	Operations Support Systems (OSS) have been a critical component of any telecommunications company’s business plan. In this paper we examine the history of OSS from the perspectives of maturing support for problem domains, enabling technologies, and system integration. Finally, we will look at the problems posed by the coming “everything over IP” networks, the changing communications provider landscape and the impact on operations support systems.
