Fixed-Mobile Convergence: Compelling Market – IMS: Enormous SIP Opportunity

By R. Brough Turner, SVP, CTO and co-founder of NMS Communications VoIP is hot, but it’s still small potatoes when compared with mobile telephony’s 1.7 billion subscribers and continued high rates of subscriber growth. Unfortunately, mobile telephony is still based on traditional circuit-switching – the move to VoIP has barely begun. The good news is market pressures are opening up opportunities for SIP-based solutions in mobile telephony. Read the full article (PDF) here >>>

Survivability and scalability of SIP Networks by using Peer-to-Peer protocols

By Adrian Georgescu

SIP is capable to enable new applications and is more effective in delivering of new services when compared with proprietary Peer-to-Peer applications that are limited in scope to their designated purpose. However Peer-to-Peer applications have proven to scale better for many users as well as resisting and recovering from disasters. Combining SIP with Peer-to-Peer techniques offers advantages from both worlds, namely survivability and scalability.

SIP Thor(tm) is AG Projects solution for survivability and scalability of SIP communications. It is using Peer-to-Peer technology to realize scalability with no single point of failure. SIP Thor is a much more scalable and flexible solution than pure Peer-to-Peer networks or stand-alone SIP Proxy/Registrars. SIP Thor combines the advantages of both models while eliminating the disadvantages presented by them.
