Solution reliability and productivity

The solution is based on WINGS industrial platform and is notable for its high productivity and false tolerance. The platform is build on SOA architecture and consists of independent agents (modules), which interact with each other through queues.

Such architecture enables:

To pipe messages: system module takes the message from incoming queue, handles it and puts it into outgoing queue and continues to handle the next message without waiting for the recipient.
Supports working efficiency of the whole system if one or several modules fail (the messages are kept in the module incoming queue and can be handled by other module samples);
Update and add system modules without interrupting the whole work of the system;
Scale the system by adding module samples for handling messages from one incoming queue;
To locate module samples on different servers.

The full-fledged solution can connect to the WINGS central monitoring system that provides:

Hazard and operability notification via SMS and email;
Connection monitoring with operators and gateways;
Monitoring and error analysis of SMS delivery;
Monitoring of key factors: sending speed, time of delivery and etc.;
Equipment load monitoring.
