Mobicents Diameter 1.4.0.FINAL Released!

Monday, June 4, 2012 em 17:47 | Publicada por Alexandre Mendonça
The Mobicents Diameter 1.4.0.FINAL has been released today (announcement), and it represents the last mile in a long enhancement, refactoring and improvement journey. A lot of features have been added along the way:
  • Improved Cluster Support with fine-grained data per Diameter Application;
  • Support for more 3GPP Applications (Gq', Rx, Gx, S6a) and improved/updated existing;
  • Support for Diameter RELAY / PROXY / REDIRECT Agents;
  • Performance improvement of over 9 times (now handling up to 9000 requests/second in Dev Machine, C2D @ 3.06GHz / 4GB RAM, no special setup);
  • Added several configuration parameters to optimize for different scenarios (regular usage vs high load vs small footprint, etc);
  • 100+ miscellaneous fixes to improve overall compliance and stability of the Mobicents Diameter Stack and it's JAIN SLEE Resource Adaptors;
  • Also important, Mobicents (including Diameter) license has changed from GPL to LGPL, which is generally good news for the users!
Still, there's a lot of work and improvements to be done for the upcoming 1.4.x series. To name a few:
  • Support for TLS security in Mobicents Diameter Stack (existing in 1.4.0.FINAL as experimental);
  • Support for  SCTP transport in Mobicents Diameter Stack (initial patch already contributed);
  • Support pluggable Load Balancing algorithms for Mobicents Diameter Stack; Integrate with Mobicents Load Balancer;
  • Create integration/real-world examples, eg, integrate with Mobicents JAIN SLEE B2BUA, continue work on Mobicents HSS and integrate it with Mobicents SIP Presence;
  • Improve documentation for developers using Mobicents Diameter Stack;
As you can see, there's a lot that has been improved but there's also a lot more to improve on, with our ambition aiming higher. Feel free to help us with your feedback and contributions to a better Mobicents Diameter!

Mobicents Diameter 1.4.0.BETA2 is out!

Monday, July 11, 2011 em 13:16 | Publicada por Alexandre Mendonça
It's been a while since the last Mobicents Diameter release, but it's finally here, the latest and greatest! This is a special release as it is the one with the most community contribution. Thanks to all the contributors for showing the value of open-source!

- Enhanced Stability: 30+ issues regarding stack functionality were  identified and fixed, providing a more stable and usable stack;
- Improved Compliance: Better and stricter compliance to specifications, resulting in a more compatible and strict stack;
- Gq' Application Support: Another valuable 3GPP application, Gq', is now supported both in Diameter Stack and in Mobicents JAIN SLEE, with it's Resource Adaptor. Thanks to Yulian Oifa for his contribution;
 - Better Cluster Support: Improved cluster support by updating to the latest Mobicents Cluster framework and fixed replication related issues; 
 - Experimental Agent Support: Initial support for experiments with supporting RELAY, PROXY and REDIRECT agents;
 - Extended Testsuite: Over 100 new JUnit tests were added to the testsuite in order to guarantee the best compliance and continuous regression testing.

Note: This is a BETA release as there are API and deep core changes happening, but it's been thoroughly tested, with the testsuite extended to cover more than ever, including message flows for all applications both in standalone and cluster mode!

Mobicents Diameter v1.1.0.GA Released!

Sunday, October 18, 2009 em 01:25 | Publicada por Alexandre Mendonça
It was on Friday, 16th October 2009 that a shiny new release of Mobicents Diameter happened.

It's v1.1.0.GA and along with the usual enhancements and bug fixes, the main new features are:
  • JBoss AS 5 support
  • Stack configuration at runtime, via JMX
  • Educative Example for Cx/Dx application
  • Preview of the Mobicents Diameter User Guide
It can be downloaded from here: Mobicents Diameter v1.1.0.GA Downloads

Please note that the JBoss 5 version zip contains only the Stack and the Multiplexer, no JAIN SLEE Resource Adaptors or Examples are included. If you want to try the new Mobicents JAIN SLEE 2.x version (which runs on JBoss 5) and it's Diameter Resource Adaptors and Examples, you'll need to build them from source, which can be found in the SVN trunk.

Summing it up, you now get a more stable Diameter in 2 flavors (JBoss 4 & JBoss 5), the ability to configure the stack in realtime (add/remove realms, add/remove peers, manage timeouts, etc...), a new example of how to play with Cx/Dx (which will be the basis for the HSS prototype) plus the user guide to help you play with all of it!

A special thanks to Jared Morgan and Tom Wells for the extra effort on the documentation!
