Aculab has announced that it is incorporating a dual redundant SIP service (DRSS) in a core product line. The actual application is expected to be available later this quarter.
Adding DRSS improves IP network reliability “similar to” TDM-based SS7 networks (i.e. like the old PSTN), so Aculab says communication service providers running it in apps like hosted voice, conferencing, chat, and contact centers will be able to provide closer “always on” performance for SIP-based services.
Be interesting to see how this (long overdue in some circles) feature takes off in the months to come.
