SRDF/CE (Symmetrix Remote Data Facility/Cluster Enabler)

SRDF/CE is a software plug-in module to EMC Cluster Enabler for Microsoft Failover Clusters software. The Cluster Enabler (CE) plug-in architecture consists of a CE base module component and plug-in module for SRDF.

This plug-in module provides a software extension of failover clusters functionality that allows Windows Server 2003 and 2008 (including R2) Enterprise and Datacenter editions running Microsoft Failover Clusters to operate across multiple connected Symmetrix arrays in geographically distributed clusters. Each cluster node is connected through a storage network to the supported Symmetrix array. This expands the range of cluster storage and management capabilities while ensuring full business continuance protection. An iSCSI or Fibre Channel connection from each cluster node is made to its own Symmetrix array. Two connected Symmetrix arrays provide automatic failover of mirrored volumes during a Microsoft failover cluster node failover. This product is best suited for Cloud based applications which give high data availability.

The CE is extension to the Microsoft’s Cluster architecture having WMI Provider, ResourceDLL, Arbitration Service, and Class Filter Driver (for disk arbitration) having GUI implemented using MMC.

Offline CAD DICOM Server (OfflineCDS)

OfflineCDS processes the incoming datasets, when they arrive, automatically and store the results persistently. It identifies the CAD algorithm(s) that can process the incoming dataset. After identification, it invokes the CAD algorithm to process the dataset and store the results into a DICOM file. The result can be returned to the visualization application immediately upon request for CAD results. Once after the algorithm processing is completed, it will store the results on the database of the local machine. When the visualization application invokes CAD algorithm, the CAD algorithm will return the result immediately after retrieving them from the stored results.
