Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are provided for allowing a single machine, such as a server, to co-host multi-SIP Archive (SAR) applications offering SIP servlet based products. The concept of a Root Application Router is introduced that is adapted to coordinate other Sub-Application Routers rather than individual SARs. These other Sub-Application Routers are fully fledged Application Routers in their own right, but are unaware of the controlling Root Application Router.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are provided for enhancing the functionality of a communication device, such as a communication endpoint. This provides the ability to enhance less intelligent SIP endpoints with required features to support a richer user experience. Furthermore, the endpoint enhancer may be dynamically pluggable onto an existing network device. This provided pluggability allows a network administrator to add a new SEE template to the network without disrupting the network operation or the operation of previously existing SEEs.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods which provide high availability with respect to equipment deployed in a distributed system architecture. The distributed system architecture may comprise one or more equipment clusters of a plurality of processor-based systems cooperating to host one or more application servers. Redundancy is provided with respect to equipment of the equipment clusters to provide high availability with respect to equipment used in providing services of the application servers as well as to provide continuity of applications provided by the application servers. Various equipment elements of an equipment cluster may be provided different levels and/or types of redundancy. Other equipment elements of an equipment cluster may be provided different levels and/or types of redundancy.
