Design Issues for a High Reliability Environment for Erlang

  • Maurice Castro
چکیده

High reliability and rapid recovery are essential to telcos and their clients. A number of well known requirements [4] are illustrative: \... Less than 3 minutes of accumulated down time per year and exchange... the duration of a system restart must be < 30 seconds" This paper examines aspects of the implementation of the Erlang language and the supporting architecture which can provide service reliability of the level expected by the telecommunications industry. Design elements for both the hardware and software elements of the system are discussed. Implementations using both commodity hardware and custom hardware are outlined and compared.

Cold standby redundancy optimization for nonrepairable series-parallel systems: Erlang time to failure distribution

In modeling a cold standby redundancy allocation problem (RAP) with imperfect switching mechanism, deriving a closed form version of a system reliability is too difficult. A convenient lower bound on system reliability is proposed and this approximation is widely used as a part of objective function for a system reliability maximization problem in the literature. Considering this lower bound do...

A Scalable Reliable Instant Messenger Using the SD Erlang A Scalable Reliable Instant Messenger Using the SD Erlang Libraries

Erlang has world leading reliability capabilities, but while it scales extremely well within a single node, distributed Erlang has some scalability issues. The Scalable Distributed (SD) Erlang libraries have been designed to address the scalability limitations while preserving the reliability model, and shown to deliver significant performance benefits above 40 hosts using some relatively simpl...

Reliability Analysis of k-out-of-n Cold Standby Systems with Erlang Distributions

Many fielded systems use cold standby redundancy as an effective system design strategy. However, methods for analyzing the reliability of k-out-of-n cold standby systems, particularly with components having age-dependent hazard rates, are limited. In this paper, using the concepts of counting processes, we propose an efficient method to evaluate the reliability of k-out-of-n cold standby syste...
