Arraid Products in Telephony
Modern Telephony depends on the use of reliable computer systems in every part of the business. Arraid has helped many Customers with storage problems in switching systems, CBX, large database systems for wire plant maintenance and remote, data collection systems.
Telephony applications are constantly evolving in response to competitive pressures, with ever increasing demands on system capacity and performance. At the same time, the need to remain profitable means that companies must squeeze everything they can out of existing equipment. Some systems were designed and built to interface with specific communication equipment or to run specific application software. These systems are prohibitively expense to replace. As long as the existing computer system remains reliable and maintainable, there is little reason to upgrade the system or rehost the computer.
As with any mission critical system, where proper operation of the communication network depends on its functioning, computer system availability is key. Outages means lost revenue and potentially lost Customers. Support teams are constantly challenged to prevent failure and minimize downtime. Unfortunately, while the system's host computer and interfaces may remain reliable and maintainable, legacy storage products don't.
For these older computer systems, Arraid provides COTS storage emulation solutions, integrating ARRAIDs proprietary FPGA based solid state Flash Drive (AFD), it can extend the life of mission critical systems and help to insure optimum availability. For early SCSI systems we have both JBOD chassis and replacement SCSI Flash Drive modules. For more current systems, Arraid can provide NAS and RAID storage modules to increase system capabilities and performance.
