HA Software Addition Further Strengthens TelcoBridges' Award-Winning Offerings Targeted at the Service Provider Market

Montreal, Canada & Los Angeles, California: September 16th, 2008, ITEXPO West

TelcoBridges Inc., the preferred hardware and software supplier for telecom solution developers, today announced the Toolpack System Manager, an innovative software-based enhancement to TelcoBridges’ Toolpack API.  The Toolpack System Manager enables solution providers to maximize their systems’ availability. The software also simplifies maintenance and upgrade procedures by supporting in-service upgrades to eliminate any downtime that could affect end-users. 

 

TelcoBridges’ Toolpack System Manager enhances application resiliency and redundancy by monitoring the integrity of all software sub-systems.  It detects, isolates and addresses faults by switching over to standby systems or components in automatic fashion.  During a failure, the Toolpack System Manager restarts affected applications, and resynchronizes ports, stacks, and ongoing calls, without requiring action from the person managing the network. 

 

For live routine maintenance and upgrades, Toolpack System Manager switches control to redundant servers, freeing up primary applications for maintenance.  Downtime is minimized, and switchovers are achieved in less than one second, with no loss of service, and only minimal effects on transient calls.

 

“Today, consumers demand uninterrupted voice and data services, and operators in turn demand a system that’s highly available – which means 99.999-percent of the time,” said Gaetan Campeau, President of TelcoBridges.  “We deliver this capability, through our award-winning hardware, and through unique software like Toolpack System Manager.  The resulting solution delivers the quality and flexibility that the world’s largest operators depend on to service tens-of-millions of their customers.”     

 

In order to maximize system availability, operators, and the solutions developers who service them, must integrate robust hardware with reliable software, and fault monitoring & knowledge management applications. The degree to which these items work together plays a critical role in system performance. The integrity and performance of TelcoBridges’ hardware is well known throughout the industry. And today’s software offering strengthens the Toolpack API, which accompanies all TelcoBridges’ hardware, resulting in a greater and more valuable overall solution.
