Ericsson Telecom Server Platform 4
Victor Ferraro-Esparza, Michael Gudmandsen, Kristofer Olsson · 2002
The Ericsson Telecom Server Platform 4 is more robust and fault-tolerant than any comparable server technology. It is extremely reliable with unique, linearly scalable capacity, and real-time characteristics, which means that transmission takes place with minimal and controlled delay. The telecommunications-grade software is enabled by TelORB clusterware, which runs on top of DICOS and Linux. The software incorporates the very latest in signaling system no. 7 (SS7) and built-in node management, with support for the many protocols needed for interoperability between the Telecom Server Platform and operations support systems (OSS). In its make-up, the Telecom Server Platform combines Ericsson’s long tradition of designing robust and reliable hardware with commercially available components. The result is an open hardware architecture with excellent characteristics: scalable capacity, telecommunications-grade reliability, small footprint and minimal power consumption.
