SmartVista CI Ready HP and BPC Banking Technologies consider SmartVistaNonStop solution as a strategic one for payments
Porting Project Goals • Port SmartVistaFrontEnd switching component on HP Integrity NonStop platform • Keep NonStop version of SmartVistaFrontEnd as close as possible to common UNIX version • Use proprietary NonStop features if required • Develop source code translation procedures to keep NonStop version up-to-date • Suggest a NonStop-based hardware environment
Prerequisites • Stateless components • Multiple instances for every process type (similar to NonStop Server Class concept) • Single-threaded processes • Message prioritizing • GUI is not a critical component
Hardware Infrastructure Features • HA-enabled environment with better availability compared to UNIX • Less hardware compared to all-UNIX environment • Expand option available for distributed database • No SAN and hardware mirroring required up to mid-size requirement • Scalability on request
Availability Features • Uses native RDF/GoldenGate/DRnet features for replication • Both Active-Passive and Active-Active modes ready • Expand option available for distributed database • ServerNet feature used for clustering • Remote DR/Second Production Site installation capability
Target Implementation Environments • “Pure Switching” installations • ATM/Device Controller installations • Horizontally scaled environments • Active-Active installations with non-equal nodes • Where RTO = 0 is a must • Retention of the Nonstop platform is a priority
Project Goals Achieved • SmartVista FrontEnd ported on HP Integrity NonStop platform • NonStop version of SmartVista FrontEnd inherits all the functionality of UNIX version • Runs on top of proprietary layers of NonStop • Automatic procedures available for source code translation from UNIX version • Suggested NonStop based hardware environment
Important To Know • Functionality (including operational) identical to common UNIX-based solution • OSS used instead of Guardian to manage SmartVista processes • It is possible to control the processes from Guardian as well • Uses native NonStop TS/MP features for queues and message priorities • Process types are registered as Server Classes
Benchmark Experiences • Two benchmarks conducted – Bangalore and Cupertino • Solution tested for compatibility on H-, G- and J-Series platforms • Benchmarked on G- and J-Series including NonStop BladeSystem • 180TPS /2-way, 240TPS/4-way with less than 50% CPU load • Fault tolerance tests passed - CPU shutdown while system running
Technical Environment SmartVista remains an Open System application on Nonstop
