Fixed Network Elements: Powerful High-Speed Data Management

Just as broadband, content, and service diversity in NGN IP-based networks increase, the supporting infrastructure has to be equipped – not only physically but also conceptually – to handle the resulting higher traffic.

Powerful high-speed data transport management delivers decisive real-time quality advantages. The overall capability of Class 5 Softswitch Systems highly depends on intelligent routing-and-switching algorithms and even more so – especially considering increasing traffic and access requests – on the performance of the database backend managing this intelligence.

The intelligence of softswitch systems, which is best represented in object-oriented models, can be stored directly using Versant Object Database. Because complex queries can be processed directly without requiring access to rigid table structures, both time-to-market and run-time performance are dramatically improved. The intelligence of telecommunications networks is always fleeting, with new services and new equipment integrated into the network almost daily. A consistently utilized object-oriented architecture of intelligence, from modeling to storing, makes it extremely easy to implement changes and enhancements to the logic.

With its combination fine-grained concurrency control, real-time performance, and reliable high-availability solutions, the Versant Object Database is unique in its ability to provide the new generation of systems and services with the efficient, intelligent and fail-proof brain it deserves.
