Is the TCAP DB part of the LIDB collective (no Borg pun intended)??

Caller Name is stored in a SCP.  It is a TCAP transaction.  The
receiving
switch via SS7 recieves
the calling party number in the ISUP message of the SS7 datastream.  It
is
normally in the IAM mesasge.  Then a TCAP CNAME query is launched from
the
called switch thru
the STP's to a SCP which has the calling name database.  The TCAP query
returns back to the launching
switch the caller name.  LIDB is for operator services etc. CNAME is a
TCAP
database lookup, much
like 800 number translations.
