The automated billing system of Petter Service company is tested on a hardware platform of Huawei

Stress testing was held in the Research and development center of Huawei in Shenzhen from December 08, 2013 to January 24, 2014. According to the results of tests of the offered hardware platform at the simulated loading in 36 million subscribers a system showed complete working capacity and outstanding performance.

For testing the Huawei RH5885 V2 servers and storage systems of Huawei OceanStore S6800T were provided. Besides, based on the Huawei RH5885 V2 servers work of components of a system under control of virtual environment of VMware VSphere was successfully tested.

For the first time were completely tested on x86 platform with the greatest possible use of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system, Red Hat company. In particular, as the DB server the cluster from three nodes under control of RHEL 6 and ORACLE RDBMS 11.2.0.3 with the option Real Application Cluster was also used. In the long term the similar hardware configuration will allow telecom operators to reduce considerably, both costs for creation, and operating costs.

The head of group of stress testing of Petter Service company Alexey Mishulovin noted: "On characteristics of performance the equipment of Huawei shows very high level. At the stated simulated base in 36 million subscribers on the vast majority of transactions loading of the central database server did not exceed 68% for one node of a cluster".

The head of the IT direction of department on work with key clients of Huawei company in Russia Pavel Vishnyakov added: "The received results testify to a maturity of our IT solutions and their readiness for application in systems critical for business, such as BSS, CRM, etc. Together with traditional product quality of Huawei and technical support of the highest level, a system based on servers and DWH of Huawei company will allow our clients to increase the competitiveness".

According to the results of testing ASR showed complete working capacity on all key performance indicators, at the same time the simulated subscriber base and loading by 1.5 times exceeded the maximum volumes stated in the certificate of a system. Specialists of "Petter Service" also noted that many results considerably exceeded the stated requirements, and the configuration of the equipment offered to testing can be recommended as industrial. On the vast majority of transactions loading of CPU of the central database server did not exceed 40% that testifies to the considerable potential of the tested hardware-software complex.
