Project Description

An element management system (EMS) manages one or more of a specific type of telecommunications network element (NE). Typically, the EMS manages the functions and capabilities within each NE but does not manage the traffic between different NEs in the network. To support management of the traffic between itself and other NEs, the EMS communicates upward to higher-level network management systems (NMS) as described in the telecommunications management network (TMN) layered model.

The EMS provides the foundation to implement TMN-layered operations support system (OSS) architectures that enable service providers to meet customer needs for rapid deployment of new services, as well as meeting stringent quality of service (QoS) requirements. The TeleManagement Forum common object request broker architecture (CORBA) EMS-to-NMS interface heralds a new era in OSS interoperability by making the TMN architecture a practical reality.

Contribution:

Worked on design and implementation of achieving complete Protocol Neutrality of all the modules in EMS application.

Worked on build related activities.

Worked on Enhancements for the existing application.

Mentoring and code reviewing for junior developers.

Project Description

Equinox is the application that guides marketing, sales and manufacturing of SGI’s products. It is the sole configurator deployed by SGI for configuring Storages, Networks, Workstations and Multi-domain servers.

Equinox uses a backtracking engine (SalesBuilder) that interprets the rules written in CML to configure a system. It involves modeling of electronic components like motherboard, network cards and validating their working as a unit. The components are modeled as objects in an object-oriented environment. The various configuration rules are written in constructors of the corresponding objects.
