A method of processing data for at least one wireless communication network and a data processing system for implementing such a method are provided. The method comprises determining geolocation information for data segments received at a plurality of distributed components of a data processing system, the data segments being received from at least one network element of the wireless communication network, and forwarding the data segments to backend processing resources based at least partly on their respective geolocation information.

Method and apparatus for processing data

A method and apparatus for enabling near real time analysis of data for a wireless communication network using dynamic allocation backend processing resources. The method comprises, at each of a plurality of distributed components of a data processing system, receiving data from at least one network element of the cellular communication network, parsing the received data to extract a subset of the received data, and forwarding the extracted subset of data to the dynamic allocation backend processing resources for analytical processing of the extracted subset of data for the wireless communication network.

Method and apparatus for enabling near real time data analysis

A method of managing data for at least one wireless communication network and a data management system for implementing such a method are provided. The method comprises determining at least one free space metric for at least one data storage device and comparing the at least one determined free space metric for the at least one data storage device to at least one threshold value. If the at least one determined free space metric for the at least one data storage device exceeds the at least one threshold value, the method further comprises identifying data object groups represented by data objects stored within the at least one data storage device, determining a retention priority value for each identified data object group, determining at least one data object group for which to retire data objects based at least partly on the determined retention priority values, and retiring data objects within the determined at least one data object group from the at least one data storage device.

Method and apparatus for managing data

A data management system and method of managing call data for at least one radio network element within a cellular communication network. The method comprising receiving call data for at least one call from the at least one radio network element within the cellular communication network, arranging the received call data into call data records of a non-fixed size, and writing the call data records to at least one data storage device such that the call data records are stored adjacent one another.

Method and apparatus for managing call data

A data management system and method of managing call data for at least one radio network element within a cellular communication network. The method comprises receiving geolocation associated call data for at least one call within the at least one cellular communication network, arranging the received geolocation associated call data for the call into at least one call data record, and writing the at least one call data record to at least one data storage device, The geolocation associated call data for the at least one call comprises at least two spatial coordinate values for an at least two dimensional spatial reference, and the method comprises indexing the at least one call data record within the at least one data storage device using a single dimensional coordinate value.

A data management system method of managing call data for at least one radio network element within a cellular communication network. The method comprises receiving call data for at least one call from the at least one radio network element within the cellular communication network, arranging the received call data into call data records, assembling the call data records into at least one data block, and writing the at least one data block to at least one data storage device. The method further comprises, upon receipt of a call data query, retrieving call data records from the at least one data storage device on a per data block basis.
