In Rhino, a Resource Adaptor (RA) provides the interface between the application (Sentinel VoLTE) and the network. Sentinel VoLTE makes use of a number of Resource Adaptors, for purposes ranging from database connections to network integration.

OpenCloud Resource Adaptors used by Sentinel VoLTE

Sentinel VoLTE configures the following Resource Adaptor Entities out of the box.

Resource Adaptor Entity Purpose

cassandra-cql-ra

communication with the Cassandra Database

cassandra-third-party-reg

communication with the Cassandra Database for Third Party Registrar

cassandra-external-session-tracking

communication with the Cassandra Database for External Session Tracking

cdr

writing of call detail records (or 3GPP Charging Data Records)

cginmapra

querying the HLR (optional, depending on installation choices)

dbquery-0

communication with an SQL Database

diameter-sentinel-internal

internal Ro communication between protocol handling front-ends and the internal mediation subsystem

diameterro-0

communication with Online Charging Systems

http

enabling queries to external systems (such as RESTful queries), or enabling click to call style scenarios

reorigination-correlation-ra

sentinel-management

management of Sentinel subsystems

sh-cache-ra

communication with the HSS

sip-sis-ra

SIP interface for the TAS

sipra

utility mechanisms for the SIP protocol

uid

allocation of globally unique IDs

Tip All these RAs can be viewed and configured using the Sentinel Element Manager. Future releases of Sentinel will have resource adaptors to support other protocols, such as Diameter CCA. Customers can also add their own resource adaptors, using the Sentinel VoLTE SDK.
