Service Level Definitions Implementation Agreement

Overview This document establishes a Frame Relay Forum Implementation Agreement on the definitions of transfer parameters that describe frame relay service performance. They are suitable for reference by network Service Level Agreement (SLA) documents established between the network service provider and the customer. They also are suitable for reference by SLA documents established between network service providers. These parameters may be applied to the information transfer phases of PVC or SVC implementations and services.

Planet Online deal secures ISP foothold for Energis

Bieler said Planet will be in a better position to offer its customers service level agreements, as it will be in control of its own high-speed network, making use of Energis' frame relay and ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) services.

Frame relay and ATM are complementary technologies says panel

Frame relay and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) are complementary rather than competitive technologies, according to a panel of experts at the Frame Relay Forum at Supercomm '99 in Atlanta. The research predicts the frame relay services market...

Has Gigabit Ethernet come of age?

The advent of its fatter version is opening up the transfer of WAN data from ATM, frame-relay or packet over SONET/SDH to a potentially more efficient and cheaper method. However, as yet Gigabit Ethernet and its even fatter younger sibling 10...

Convergence: lower costs and extra flexibility - the IP VPN promise

For multinationals, moving from international Frame Relay circuits to an MPLS IP VPN does not necessarily save money in the short term though longer-term financial payoffs are already being reported by early adopters.

Frame Relay suffers as IP VPNs and more move on up

Out go ATM, Frame Relay and leased lines. At the top of the technologies labelled as 'in decline' is Frame Relay, which will generate 26 per cent less revenue than in the earlier 12-month period. In come DSL, Ethernet and IP virtual private...

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
