solution consists of the following components:

Customer Provided:

• Hardware—Memory, CPU, network cards, and disk drives.
• Hypervisor—A thin layer of software that runs on top of the hardware. The hypervisor gives each Virtual Machine (VM) a dedicated view of the hardware.
• Virtual Machine (VM)—Either Vmware ESXi operating system hosted on Hypervisor. The VM appears to the user as a separate physical computer. The VM shares physical resources with other virtual machines.

Sonus SBC SWe Software:

The

(as part of an existing hardware platform):

• In a private cloud: The 

  Spacevars
  0 product2

  application resides on a private virtualized cloud, whereby new instances can be instantiated as more capacity is needed.
• In a public cloud: The 

  Spacevars
  0 product2

  image is available to an enterprise wanting to deploy 

  Spacevars
  0 product2

  as part of building a virtual public cloud.
• On a dedicated server: The 

  Spacevars
  0 product2

  application exists on COTS hardware rather than a proprietary platform.

The 

Spacevars
0 product2

targets small to large session count deployments (25 to unlimited). These capacities make this product particularly well suited for small to large enterprises and service providers. See For VMware.

Info
The  Spacevars 0 product2 does not currently support "elastic cloud computing" environments.
