چکیده

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) high availability, reliability and redundancy are determined by the ability of the core SIP network components to offer high quality SIP services in the event(s) of high call transactions, link outages, device failures, misconfigurations and security attacks. In this context, load balancers can be used to achieve redundancy and active load balancing of SIP transactions. In load balancing schemes, new requests are allocated across available servers using a selection algorithm. Although considerable work has been already done for Web traffic balancing, little research effort is primarily aiming to SIP load balancing. This paper proposes a SIP dedicated load balancing solution, which is currently under development within the EC funded project SNOCER. We describe in detail our balancing scheme, its associated architecture elements and provide implementation details showing that it is simple to realize, effective, flexible, robust and secure.

Two Stage Secure Dynamic Load Balancing Architecture for SIP Server Clusters

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a signaling protocol emerged with an aim to enhance the IP network capabilities in terms of complex service provision. SIP server scalability with load balancing has a greater concern due to the dramatic increase in SIP service demand. Load balancing of session method (request/response) and security measures optimizes the SIP server to regulate of network tr...

Load Balancing Algorithms for the Session Initiation Protocol

This paper introduces several novel load balancing algorithms for distributing Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) requests to a cluster of SIP servers. Our load balancer improves both throughput and response time versus a single node, while exposing a single interface to external clients. We present the design, implementation, and evaluation of our system using a cluster of Intel x86 machines ru...

Nationwide SIP Telephony Network Design to Prevent Congestion Caused by Disaster

We present a session initiation protocol (SIP) network design for a voice-over-IP network to prevent congestion caused by people calling friends and family after a disaster. The design increases the capacity of SIP servers in a network by using all of the SIP servers equally. It takes advantage of the fact that equipment for voice data packets is different from equipment for signaling packets i...

Load Balancing Approaches for Web Servers: A Survey of Recent Trends

Numerous works has been done for load balancing of web servers in grid environment. Reason behinds popularity of grid environment is to allow accessing distributed resources which are located at remote locations. For effective utilization, load must be balanced among all resources. Importance of load balancing is discussed by distinguishing the system between without load balancing and with loa...

Effective load-balancing of peer-to-peer systems

The growing popularity of peer-to-peer (P2P) systems has necessitated the need for managing huge volumes of data efficiently to ensure acceptable user response times. Dynamically changing popularities of data items and skewed user query patterns in P2P systems may cause some of the peers to become bottlenecks, thereby resulting in severe load imbalance and consequently increased user response t...
