Technical Examples

A method, system and article for optimizing the processing of switch transactions and updating multiple switches of a communications network based on a single transaction is provided. When a switch is backlogged with transactions beyond a threshold quantity, those transactions heading to the backlogged switch are grouped together, placed in a file and sent to the switch as a single transaction. Some of the batched individual transactions may be dependent upon other switches as well. The present invention accommodates for multiple dependencies and responds with a success notification only when all portions of the original transaction are complete. In another aspect of the invention, where multiple switches require updating, such updating can be accomplished with only a single transaction. Switch identification information is included with the transaction permitting multiple switches to be updated from the single transaction.
