1909.0. "100 000 entities and above..." by TAEC::BOSSARD () Tue Dec 10 1991 12:20

A question from a customer :

	"cCan super-NEs with up to 300 000 objects be managed ?  (Siemen talks
	 about managing something like their next generation ATM switch, but
	 even today complex NEs can have up to 100 000 objects, they say)."

apart from the DBm limitations and event flows from these "objects" any other 
point worth to be highlighted ?

Thank's for help,

    It really depends on whether they are 300,000 global entities or
    300,000 child entities of a single global entity. In other words
    how are you going to model the ATM network. If it is 300,000
    global entities, you would have many instances of MCC with
    some strategy of partitioning the 300,000 entities into
    some meaningful domain structure with each mcc instance only
    handling a small number of the domains. 
    
    Many customers continue to think of a large centralized mono-lithic
    management system. Any such system will always break at some boundary
    of scaling. Distributing the load over multiple instances resolves
    the issues.
