DOCUMENTATION 》 LoRaWAN - Network Optimization via TOFFEE WAN Optimization

LoRaWAN - Network Optimization:
LoRaWAN is a very promising technology where it allows us to establish long range networks making it suitable for IoT and other such applications. With LoRaWAN now it is possible to collect data metric/analytics from the sensors scattered across a large area (typically many miles 5-10 Kms or a bit more). The only drawback of LoRa is that although it provides long range its network data rate is far too low. In a way that is sufficient for IoT or such sensor based data, but it is way too less (almost impractical) for any effective communication channel (such as internet browsing, etc). The speed you get is around 1kbps to 2.5kbps depending upon the range, signal strength and so on.

So here is a scenario where few sensors are attached to a LoRaWAN Network. Let us assume in this case few of these sensors are not themselves LoRa capable, hence they are connected to an intermediate LoRaWAN Aggregator. This in turn connected backend to a LoRaWAN Gateway through which it gets internet connectivity.

LoRaWAN Network

We can now improve its performance by incorporating TOFFEE-DataCenter within this hardware infrastructure. Thus improving its total overall network bandwidth. We can now squeeze a lot more data through this long-range network channel than it is possible earlier with LoRaWAN Technology (hardware) alone.

TOFFEE-Butterscotch yet another variant of TOFFEE can be used to save and optimize your Home/SOHO Internet/WAN bandwidth. Unlike TOFFEE (and TOFFEE-DataCenter) TOFFEE-Butterscotch is a non peer-to-peer (and asymmetric) network optimization solution. This makes TOFFEE-Butterscotch an ideal tool for all Home and SOHO users.

Live demo - Data Transfer - High bandwidth to Low bandwidth ↗
Saturday' 13-Mar-2021
I always wanted to do some real experiments and research on packet flow patterns from High-bandwidth to Low-bandwidth networks via networking devices. This is something can be analyzed via capturing Network stack buffer data and other parameters, bench-marking, and so on. But eventually the data-transfer nature and other aspects is often contaminated due to the underlying OS and the way Network stack is implemented. So to understand the nature of packet flow from Higher to Lower bandwidth and vice-versa such as Lower to higher bandwidth, I thought I experiment with various tools and things which physically we can observe this phenomena.

TOFFEE can be used to optimize expensive Wireless backhaul network infrastructure. TOFFEE can be deployed over existing slow or often outdated old backhaul networks too. This will leverage mobile ISPs and network service providers to reduce their bulk IT CapEx and OpEx Costs.




Introducing TOFFEE-DataCenter ↗
Saturday' 13-Mar-2021
TOFFEE TOFFEE Data-Center is specifically meant for Data Center, Cluster Computing, HPC applications. TOFFEE is built in Linux Kernel core. This makes it inflexible to adapt according to the hardware configuration. It does sequential packet processing and does not scale up well in large multi-core CPU based systems (such as Intel Xeon servers, Core i7 Extreme Desktop systems,etc). Apart from this since it is kernel based, if there is an issue in kernel, it may crash entire system. This becomes a challenge for any carrier grade equipment (CGE) hardware build.
