GoAhead® OpenSAFfire™
High Availability Solution based on OpenSAF


For designers and developers of carrier-grade and mission critical systems who care about continuous service, open standards and innovation

If you are responsible for bringing a carrier-grade or mission-critical system to market, you are most likely juggling challenging requirements—bringing new services to market quicker and with fewer resources, all while ensuring uninterrupted service. Innovators like you are increasingly leveraging open source and standards-based components to shorten development cycles, reduce project risk and focus on differentiation.

GoAhead OpenSAFfire™ is a fully tested and supported commercial software distribution based on the OpenSAF open source project. It includes the industry’s most comprehensive set of high availability and management services.

OpenSAFfire is also now based on release 4.0 of OpenSAF, which implements all the major functions of the Service Availability Forum™ Application Interface Specification and also includes important enhancements to improve scalability as well as hardware and software management. Release 4.0 includes a full implementation of the SA Forum Software Management Framework (SMF) and the Forum’s new Platform Layer Management (PLM) service, which provides hardware abstraction to ease the management of supporting multiple hardware architectures and facilitates virtualization. This can increase scalability and thus the overall usage and ROI of OpenSAF on multiple platforms within an organization. For more on OpenSAF Version 4.0, click here.
