Abstract
The notion of converged service is based on the integration of traditional telecommunications features and Web 2.0 services. Today this concept is given special attention by the telecommunications service providers as a mechanism that allows them to expand their service portfolio and have greater market dynamism. However, these services present new challenges from the management point of view, which makes necessary to have ongoing monitoring mechanisms that allow detecting Quality of Service (QoS) constraint violations and thus, ensure proper operation. This paper introduces a monitoring scheme for converged services that is based on QoS constraints, and facilitates converged service fault-handling and operational management. It also provides an implementation through a sample converged service, which demonstrates its performance and applicability to this type of services.
Highlights
There is a trend in the telecommunications industry that has created a scenario in which a new model known as Telco 2.0 [1] has been defined
Proposed Monitoring Scheme The proposed monitoring scheme is designed and implemented under the JAIN SLEE specification and is deployed along with the converged services that are going to be monitored. This scheme follows a proactive approach aiming at detecting possible Quality of Service (QoS) constraints violations by constantly monitoring and analyzing each component of the converged services currently deployed in order to avoid major failures at runtime
Work This paper presented a new proposal to address the monitoring of converged services considering both, Web and telecommunications domain, and taking into account QoS constraints
Summary
There is a trend in the telecommunications industry that has created a scenario in which a new model known as Telco 2.0 [1] has been defined. It is proposed and developed a runtime monitoring scheme for converged services -built on a JAIN SLEE environment- that considers services from both the Web and telecommunications domains and is based on QoS constraints.
