Writing USSD client OR USSD Open Source/To be purchased Client

Question

Hello,

My question is that is there any software/tool/library that is open source (ideally) or to be purchased, that I can u use to send and receive USSD messages? I would like that tool/library/software to connect to USSD gateway from my server and then send and receive messages for me. I just want to focus in writing the business logic of my application and nothing else. Its just like I am searching for a software/tool/library like Kannel (for SMS).

If theres no such tool/library/software then what needs to be done at client side to be able to effectively handle huge traffic while communicating with multiple USSD gateways?

I hope my question is clear!

Look forward to your answer

USSD gateways typically provide interfaces with "common" protocol stacks, e.g. SOAP, HTML, for accessing USSD functionality. It's actually one of the prime reasons for having an USSD gateway. Consult your USSD gateways manuals.
