Hello everyone, This point is extremely interesting in the way of developing high availability or multiprotocol drivers.
A long long time ago we developed a driver for a telecommunications company, it used Kannel as a base, a communications gateway, but what I bring to this point is the concept of the "BearerBox" [1]. This piece of software within the Kannel architecture allowed the routing of messages, as well as the monitoring of the different communication channels. In a nutshell the translations from protocol X to protocol Y of the driver were done inside the "BearerBox". Another interesting way to approach this problem is the way the EPICS[2] project did it. In this paper he describes the different functionalities of the driver, I think that it is very similar to what is proposed and can serve as a documentary base. As for having the connections in a "Static" way, eh no. Given that the tests that I have carried out with Karaf and the Hop server, if these connections are available in a static way, in theory it should bring down the server for any update, it does not fit my mind 24/7. my grain of sand, 1. https://www.kannel.org/download/1.4.0/userguide-1.4.0/userguide.html 2. https://accelconf.web.cern.ch/ica05/proceedings/pdf/P3_074.pdf El lun, 15 may 2023 a las 4:28, Christofer Dutz (<[email protected]>) escribió: > Hi all, > > while doing some brainstorming on my next steps for the PROFINET driver, I > fomulated something I would call a SingletonTransport … > We have some drivers, that require a connection to open a port on a given > port number or open a raw socket.
