Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for synchronization of policy data between network functions in telecommunications networks. A method includes receiving, at a first network function in a telecommunications network, a subscription request from a second network function. The subscription request specifies a subscription for updates to policy data objects maintained by the first network function. The method includes sending a notification response to the second network function. The notification response includes, for each policy data object, a custom header including a respective entity tag for the policy data object. The method includes receiving a resource request from the second network function. The resource request specifies a first policy data object and includes a first entity tag for the first policy data object. The method includes sending a synchronization result to the second network function specifying whether or not the entity tag match.
