N2 - The predominance of mobile broadband data traffic has driven a significant increase in the complexity and scale of mobile networks. The orthodox performance management approach is for network elements to periodically report counters and metrics to performance management systems that use batch processing architectures to produce delayed reports on KPIs, KQIs, and SLAs [1] based on those counters and metrics. Mobile network operators have recognised the shortcomings of this approach and are demanding systems that provide a much more granular view of networks in real time [2]. Performance measurement events from networks [3] and user equipment [4] provide information at the required level of granularity but management systems must be evolved to use those events to monitor networks in real time.
