Difference Between A Standalone SoftSwitch And A Distributed Softswitch Architecture

A SoftSwitch, as its name suggests, is a software-based solution that utilizes hardware that is common in the business. In Voice over IP (VoIP) networks, a SoftSwitch offers call control intelligence for initiating, maintaining, routing, and terminating sessions. Initially, service providers used SoftSwitches as a component of their next-generation IP network initiatives. Compared to outdated monolithic telephony equipment based on proprietary technology, SoftSwitch systems have inherent economic advantages.

Standalone SoftSwitch Architecture:

Centralized Control: In a standalone SoftSwitch architecture, all call control and switching functions are concentrated within a single, central SoftSwitch unit. This central unit manages call routing, signaling, and other related tasks for the entire network.

Simplicity: Standalone SoftSwitches are relatively straightforward to set up and configure. They are well-suited for smaller or less complex telecommunications networks where centralized control suffices.

Scalability Challenges: As the network grows or experiences increased traffic, standalone SoftSwitches may face scalability challenges. Adding more capacity typically means upgrading the central unit, which can become expensive or impractical.

Redundancy and Failover: Ensuring redundancy and failover capabilities in a standalone architecture can be complex. It often involves configuring backup systems and failover mechanisms to minimize service disruptions in case of a central SoftSwitch failure.

Maintenance: Maintenance and software upgrades may require downtime or careful planning to avoid network interruptions, as all critical functions are consolidated in one location.

Distributed SoftSwitch Architecture:

Decentralized Control: In a distributed SoftSwitch architecture, call control and switching functions are distributed across multiple interconnected SoftSwitch nodes or devices. These nodes collaborate to manage call routing, signaling, and other tasks.

Scalability: Distributed architectures are inherently more scalable. As network traffic grows or new services are added, additional SoftSwitch nodes can be introduced, making it easier to expand the network’s capacity.

Redundancy and Failover: Distributed architectures often offer better redundancy and failover capabilities. If one node fails, the workload can be shifted to other nodes, reducing service interruptions and enhancing network reliability.

Maintenance: Maintenance and software upgrades can be performed on individual nodes without affecting the entire network. This makes it easier to manage and maintain the network while minimizing downtime.

Cost-Effectiveness: While distributed architectures may have higher initial costs due to the need for multiple nodes and interconnectivity infrastructure, they can be more cost-effective as the network scales because they provide better reliability and flexibility.

In conclusion, the need for the communications network and the unique requirements determine whether a standalone SoftSwitch architecture or a distributed SoftSwitch architecture is better for any organization. While distributed systems have superior fault tolerance, scalability, and redundancy than standalone architectures, the latter are better suited for bigger, more complicated telecommunications infrastructures. Standalone architectures are simpler and better suited for smaller networks. The choice should be made in light of variables such as network size, growth projections, dependability needs, and financial limitations.

do you simply email French colleges, and they take you in? no admission exams? no scores competition?

i mean i guess some people would prefer it go that way but can you imagine how much of an administrative bloodbath that would be?

in order to get into higher education in france you have multiple options. if you're going to specialized med, engineer, business, vet schools, you will need to pass an entrance exam. to do so, you might have to take a "prépa" [preparation] year, which is a bunch of privatel-run specialized classes which can run you some fucking moneyyyy and some students put themselves into debt over it. entrance exams are also done for most art school regardless of it private or public, such as the public one i was in for my first run of post-highshool education.

if you want to go to free public university like most (me included rn) do, in which you have a wider chance of getting into, you have to go through

which is the government online platform that regulates access to higher education. every french person who's had to use it (me included) will tell you it is the bane of our existence.

basically you have to put down your "wishes" for which branch in which uni you want to go. you have to add to them your grades of your baccalauréat [high school final exit exam] and to boost your chances a like. cover letter as to why you'd want to get in so so much. and then you WAIT. you wait for months that your submission be viewed by the professors (allegedly) of the uni you want to go to and they accept or deny you. multiple rounds of acceptation go around. once accepted into a uni, you can either accept it definitively or wait if another you you'd prefer also accepts you, with the knowledge you could be kicked off your first acceptation if someone accepts first if there are limited entrance spaces.

i know of plenty of people who were rejected from their first choice on parcoursup, and then had to fall back on a uni/class they were not that passionate about but still put in their wishes list because Parcoursup PUSHES you into high ed, even if you would have benefitted from a sabbatical, from getting a job, or from travelling. i always always say this. i can feel it in many of my classmates who were highschoolers last year, SO MANY of those people would have benefitted from getting a government grant to go travel across europe & chill for like a year. i know of plenty of people who were rejected from all of their wishes full stop because they didn't have good grades in high school. it's a goofy as fuck system which brings nothing but stress to high-school students who were (at my time) expected to study for the most important exam of their life so far alongside it (baccalauréat) [they might have changed the examination methods since i left like. 7 years ago man] and More Segregation in higher ed even if it was supposed to help with it.

even if you get into a branch with a very high acceptance rate (such as mine, who had like 90% acceptance iirc), there is a 30%-50% dropout rate for the first year only because it's so different than what you've done before.

tldr : do we wish email and no exams or score competition ? probably.

is it that way? goddess have mercy on us all No.

maybe i should actually commit to the rejection challange and apply for the job i like even though they seem like they may have colder feelings towards me

[orcelito]

I do find it so funny that I will graduate college days away from my birthday. Like my birthday is literally in between the end of the semester ("graduation") and commencement

It really will be like a joint graduation & birthday party for me lmao

german sign language level 2 refresher class, last update

yesterday I had my last lesson and we just had a little picnic and chatted about our lives, trying to get our points across with the skills we have. it was quite fun! my teacher and I talked about hobbies we tried before and those we'd try if we weren't afraid/had chronic health issues for a long time, and damn she's so cool!!

smth I noticed while signing with my teacher: it's really hard to focus on what someone is signing while others are talking in the background! my brain definitely prioritises auditory input, very distracting

other conclusions after 3 months of (in-person) class:

it's really hard to stick with only signing in class if the rest of the group resorts to talking constantly (online class naturally avoids that bc of turned off mics)

signing with one hand bc there's food in the other is tricky but after a while I got the hang of it (a bit)

even with only ~40km between cities, there are regional differences, but sometimes it's a matter of personal preference

I mix up bsl and dgs signs less and less, which is both a sign of dgs progress and disheartening bc I'm slowly forgetting my bsl vocab

when chatting casually my teacher reverted to her normal signing speed and I was lost on details at times. a very humbling experience

some headshots cause i did a sketch of him and wanted to color it again lol

little note: if i do a ‘background’, it’s because all of the layers are separate and i didn’t individually put noise overlay over them

Blue (pretty common for him, usually representative of his late friend Rei Amamiya), Orange-Brown (high school years! then to piss off his mother, now just to humor Akira), Red (show/concert color. he sticks with this just when things start going south for the thieves as support, with minimal variation), straight bleach Blond! (rare, objectively. he likes dyeing his hair frequently now that he has the freedom of an adult)
