Re: [Asterisk-Users] Reasons why I shouldn't use Asterisk?

[hkirrc.patrick]

i m a newbie with * so in all likelihood my question will sound stupid 
to you but aren't there HA support for linux already?
as to the pstn interfaces, i thought most traditional PBX uses redundant 
equipment to provide HA;
can't we do the same with * being the switch?

It would seem an odd question, but I'm trying to put together a little
presentation on 'Why Asterisk?' and need to list Pros and Cons.... I've
got plenty of Pros (including the availability of commercial support),
but the only Con I can think of is 'Relatively few installations
worldwide'
Can anyone think of any others?
 

No built in high availability or clustering options making it as 
reliable as the harware, OS and apps..

Last time I looked it up PC systems combined hardware components 
average reliability was about 96% uptime(This was a while back so the 
percentage may not be accurate).. This is a problem for telecom's 
system whos uptime is usually measured in years and not a percentage 
of 1 year..

No flames please, I realise that there are issues involved with the 
PSTN lines, channel banks and some other things in a clustered senario..

Later..
