In Service Upgrade: Delivering True High Availability

    Enea Element: SA Forum Conformant HA Middleware

    A comprehensive suite of services that provides a foundation for building and managing the complex, distributed, high-performance, fault-tolerant applications required in many of today’s next generation networking systems.

    Experienced product developers and architects recognize the important role that feature-rich, robust middleware services play in their overall system architecture.  Middleware helps ease the daunting task of developing scalable, distributed, high-performance, fault-tolerant applications required in many of today’s NGN systems by providing: 

    • High availability - Service Availibility Forum (SA Forum) conformant availability management framework
    • Software management/in-Service upgrade services 
    • Chassis management for hardware inventory, provisioning, monitoring and alarms
    • Embedded management/network management

    Distributed telecom systems are among the most complex in the world, often running millions of lines of code spread across hundreds of nodes with multiple operating systems and processors.

    Leveraging a COTS middleware solution can reduce this complexity, control  cost, and accelerate time to market for a given project.  But even more importantly, it dramatically improves developers’ “feature velocity” and enables rapid porting and re-use of your software on derivative platform architectures.  Selecting the right middleware is a strategic decision that can make or break your development effort. 

    Enea’s Element provides an open architecture, SA Forum-conformant, COTS middleware solution for distributed telecom systems that helps network equipment providers (NEPs) accelerate application development and create high-availability distributed software that is more scalable and easier to maintain. It also facilitates the design of portable software that can be reused across multiple generations of products and take advantage of the latest hardware upgrades. The upshot for network equipment and service providers is faster time to market and lower total cost of ownership.
