What is SDS?
SDS is the only fully comprehensive tool for development and end-to-end testing of both the client and server side of new convergent all-IP (IMS) applications. SDS contains a standards-based IMS network simulator with communication services (CoSe) emulators. SDS supports clients and devices for Mobile, Fixed Broadband, and WLAN access. It uses Java community common practices and de-facto standards and provides high-level APIs to hide the network and terminal device complexity from the designer.
SDS runs on a PC, is based on the Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and Wireless Toolkit (WTK).
What can SDS be used for?
With the SDS 4.1 FD1, developers can use the high-level IMS device APIs as defined in JSR 281 and under definition in JSR 325 to control and access advanced capabilities such as Presence and Group Management (PGM), Voice over IP (VoIP), Push-to-Talk (PTT), IMS-M and Combinational (CS Voice + PS sessions).
SDS includes an IMS core network emulator and can also be configured as a JavaEE/SIP server execution environment for live user or for market IMS service trials. SDS is verified with Ericsson’s IMS system offering and is released in sync with new Ericsson IMS system releases.
