ntt/verio, level(3), ... have sophisticated locally developed systems.
they see these as competitive advantage, so sharing is extremely
unlikely. and, as they are home grown, they likely do not have a
portable layer of indirection to corporate back-end data.
some large telcos seem proud that "the network is the database of
record" and are proud of it. i wish all my competitors thought that.
for my own use, i use m4, python and perl, and peval()
