NeL Network Library : Features
- - -

Introduction

-

The first objective of NeL's network library (NeL Net) is to provide a complete OS-independent data transfer API that abstracts system specific code and provides mechanisms for complete control of bandwidth usage by the application code.

-

NeL Net has a further objective of providing a complete toolkit, comprising further layers of library code and core service implementations, for the development of performance critical distributed program systems for massively multi user universe servers.

Features

General Features

-
    -
  • A layer based architecture with API access to every layer -
  • Client application API -
  • Encapsulation of process of connection to Shard Front End -
  • Encapsulation of buffering and data transmission to Shard Front End -
  • Encapsulation of reception and decoding of messages within data packets received from shard -
  • Current implementation is based on TCP/IP -
- -

Shard Back End application ('service') Framework and API

-
    -
  • Framework for developing new services -
  • Abstraction of inter-service connections with disconnection and reconnection management -
  • Management of transmission of messages to other services (with buffering) -
  • Management of reception and treatment of messages from other services (with buffering) -
  • Management of time synchronisation -
  • Management of log messages with consolidation and filtering tools -
  • Centralised shard administration and management -
  • Current implementation is based on TCP/IP -
- -

Shard Front End application API

-
    -
  • All features pertaining to back end services -
  • Multi-threaded client-communication management for large numbers of client connections -
  • Separation of incoming messages from the shard back end and incoming messages from clients -
  • Login authentication -
  • Mechanisms for monitoring growth of output data packets to the application program -
  • Current implementation is based on TCP/IP -
- -

Login/ logout management

-
    -
  • Automated system fo registration of shards with Login Manager -
  • API for connection of client application to Login Manager, for login and password authentication and for valid shard list retrieval by the client. -
  • API for selection of a shard (for an authenticated user), selection of least loaded front end server on the shard for client connection and secure system for establishing the client connection. -
- - -

On the fly backup management (to be developped)

-
    -
  • Management of a backup schedules and shard backup synchronisation -
  • Standalone service dedicated to reception and secure storage of backup data (with concept of transactions and data coherency) -
  • Service API for backing up data -
- -

Future Spec enhancements (to be developped)

-
    -
  • Multi-threaded application support -
  • Add a UDP channel from Client to Shard front end -
  • Investigate ways of adding a UDP channel from shard to client (looks tricky) -
  • Add support for data compression -
  • Optimisation of communication between services running on the same server (via pipes and/ or shared memory) -
