Abstract

A method by a count database node monitors content of subscriber accounts processed by an online charging system in a communication network for user equipment nodes. The method includes receiving by the count database node a plurality of data records. Each data record contains a subscriber identifier and an attribute to be provisioned for the subscriber. For each of the data records, the data record is sorted for storage in database structures maintained by the count database node based on the attribute of the data record. The method further includes determining a count value based on a number of the data records stored in the database structures maintained by the count database node containing an attribute defined by a query received by the count database node, and providing the count value from the count database node to another node.
