A method of providing telephony services can include receiving a request
to query a subscriber information data store to determine service
description information for a call. The service description information
can specify at least one telephony service associated with a subscriber
for use in processing the call. The method further can include querying
the subscriber information data store to determine the service
description information, receiving the service description information
from the subscriber information data store, and providing the service
description information to a telephony service node to implement a
telephony service specified by the service description information with
respect to the call.
