Single Unit Setup

Entry level solution, featuring all-in-one single, easy to deploy server.

Recommended for solutions that feature both the billing components and the VoIP components. Server type depends on the expected load.

Recommended setup is a single High Performance Server.

Enterprise Setup

A redundant solution for higher loads and demanding environments. Aims at reserving all crucial elements and at providing automated fail-over.  Services are split into web access layer, data storage plus processing layer and application layer. Each server is redundant with one running as master and second – as a hot stand-by copy. Upon primary failure, the secondary takes over automatically.

Recommended for customers that need high availability of the service.

Server roles:

• Data Storage and Billing server – high performance server
• Backup Data Storage and Billing server – high performance server
• VoIP Switch server – high performance server
• Backup VoIP Switch server – high performance server

Carrier Setup

A versatile and flexible solution for heavy loads and extremely demanding environments.

Aims at reserving all elements and at providing automated fail-over. The system makes use of optimized virtualization for system partitioning in re-seller business models. Further split of application layer into two parts to achieve higher throughput. Introduces networked storage for better data management and reservation. Introduces separate monitoring system.

Recommended for customers that need extra scalability and high availability of services.

Server roles:

• Billing Server – primary – high performance server
• Backup Billing – high performance server
• Database Processing engine – high performance server
• Backup Database Processing engine – high performance server
• VoIP Switch Server – high performance server
• Backup VoIP Switch Server – high performance server
• Networked Disk storage array (at least 1 TB redundant disk space)
• Monitoring server (optional) – standard edition server

Note! For high loads the VoIP switch may need to be setup in cluster configuration with SIP load balancer.
