description In this article, we review a new GSMA initiative - Open Gateway. This is a set of programming interfaces for developers and service providers to access the infrastructure of a telecommunications operator. In its initial launch, this initiative includes 8 programming interfaces. They mainly focus on security. There are no software interfaces associated with voice calls at all, for example. The GSMA notes that this is only the beginning, and other APIs may follow. But in the first release, well-defined interfaces were chosen. How to evaluate this implementation? Will there be users at the new gateway? For what types of services (services) can this offer be suitable? Open Gateway did not appear out of nowhere. Telecommunications applications have been successfully developed for a long time without the participation of telecommunications operators. Will the new solution meet the needs of developers, and what may appear in subsequent implementations?
