ENUM-based Next-Generation Number Portability Database
Number portability is becoming a strategic enabler of network transformation, not simply a legacy database function.
As mobile operators migrate voice services to IMS, introduce 5G Standalone, and adopt cloud-native network functions, portability infrastructure must evolve too. The challenge is that modernization cannot happen overnight. Operators still need to support 2G and 3G circuit-switched networks, SS7/MAP interworking, regulatory requirements, and existing operational processes, while building a scalable foundation for IP-native services.
Enea ENUM provides one carrier-grade platform for this transition. It combines Number Portability Database capabilities with ENUM/DNS-based number resolution, API integration, policy-driven routing, and MAP connectivity for remaining legacy network elements.
This Enables Operators to:
- Centralize and govern portability data across network domains
- Support VoLTE, VoWiFi, VoNR, IMS, and evolving 5G services
- Maintain interoperability with 2G/3G circuit-switched networks
- Scale lookup, provisioning, and data services independently
- Automate deployment and operations through CI/CD and GitOps
- Improve resilience through replication, multi-site deployment, and automated recovery
- Modernize progressively without disrupting existing services
Enea ENUM
One portability platform. Multiple generations of mobile networks. A practical path from SS7-dependent operations to IP-native, cloud-ready infrastructure.
The Strategic Value is Clear
Operators can reduce reliance on signaling-centric architectures while preserving legacy interworking, and establish a common, cloud-ready platform for future network evolution.
