XPress XTN for Telecommunications is the Association Database by Econnectix for Telecommunications that offers high-performance, high-availability, and linearly scalable data storage and retrieval for keys and their associated values.  Available as an OEM component, XPress XTN provides the core capabilities that modern applications need to smoothly and cost-efficiently support any data volume, transaction rate, and client load – period.  XPress XTN provides the most efficient database backend available for 911, call routing, IM, 3G, LBS, service routing, etc.  Based on ­patent-pending technology, XPress XTN efficiently supports tunable high-availability for both local and geographically distributed systems, and runs on a variety of platforms including both commodity and enterprise-class hardware.  XPress XTN provides performance, scalability, and replication policies unavailable by other technologies – at substantial cost-savings and reduced TCO. 

 

Benefits

 

 

High-performance due to network optimized interaction model

 

Real-time object and metadata management of any scale across network

 

High-availability from real-time replication

 

Virtually unlimited capacity based on patent-pending clustering technology

 

Low latency provided by efficient geographic distribution

Features

 

Network Optimized

XPress XTN is engineered around optimized networking technology for dynamic, high-performance network interactions to support both current and future performance requirements.

 

 
Replication

Rather than forcing application design to work around other technology’s poor replication performance, XPress XTN replication provides virtually real-time database synchronization on a per record basis.

 

 

 
Clustering

XPress XTN clustering technology permits distributed processing and storage across virtually any number of machines, without effecting client accessibility to data and without requiring value-add middleware or special hardware.

 

 

 
Performance

XPress XTN provides multiple orders of magnitude performance improvement over relational databases and directory services for managing object locality and metadata.

 

 

 
Persistent Storage

XPress XTN provides high-performance disk storage to complement the network interaction model.  XPress XTN disk storage is fully synchronized with network activity so that crucial performance is matched by crucial persistence for full server recovery.

 

 

 
Recoverability

XPress XTN provides super-fast recoverability – in seconds, not minutes.

 

 
 
Query Model

XPress XTN provides a query model suited for high volume, network-oriented applications that process small data items.  Includes an optimized core of critical database operations for highly efficient queries.

Security

XPress XTN can integrate with all major security protocols.

 

 

 
Client Applications

XPress XTN includes a software server ported to common Unix platforms and Java and C client libraries.  Pluggable front-ends allow integration with industry standards.

 

Architecture

 

 

Econnectix XPress XTN is based on a patent-pending disk-memory-network synchronization architecture which provides breakthrough performance, scalability, and availability.  With XPress XTN applications can manage key-value associations in distributed systems at wire speed.  The architecture guarantees:

§         Atomic data consistency across memory, disk, and network

§         Synchronization of servers at the performance cost of network latency

            

 

 

 

 

 

 

XPress XTN meets and surpasses data management needs with real-time response, regardless of object location:  across racks in a machine room, within a cluster on a network, on a LAN, on a WAN, or even in global distribution via the Internet.
