Reduced time-to-market by nearly two years

Application:
Next-generation multimedia controller

Challenge:
In order to achieve stringent time-to-market requirements, this leading provider of voice, video and data solutions needed to focus its resources on the application. Requirements included architectural flexibility, carrier-grade availability, and scalability.

Solution:
GoAhead, along with best-in-class partners, delivered a pre-integrated, application-ready platform that leveraged SA-Forum availability and management middleware that is platform-independent. While this solution features a comprehensive implementation of SA Forum specs, both the Hardware Platform Interface (HPI) and Application Interface Specification (AIS) - the customer focused on AIS services such as the Availability Management Framework (AMF), Information Model Management (IMM) and Notification Service (NTF). The customer also took advantage of the breadth of redundancy models offered with this solution (N-way, 1+1, N+1, 2N and N+M).

Results:
With this technology, this innovator was able to ensure 99.999%+ availability and focus on its revenue-generating application, reducing time-to-market from 36 to 14 months. The customer achieved an architecture based on standards-based hardware and SA Forum open specifications that would not only meet scalability demands (exceeding 60 nodes/cluster), but would also provide the flexibility to cost-effectively make changes.
