OpenCloud, the supplier of in-network application servers for next-generation telecommunications services, has announced the launch of its developer portal, said to be aimed to make it easy for developers to use OpenCloud's Rhino to build in-network services for the telecommunications industry.
Launched to support the growing community of Rhino application developers, OpenCloud's portal includes the Knowledge Base, a searchable database of frequently asked questions and answers spanning a wide range of platform and telecoms application topic areas. This knowledge has been compiled from OpenCloud's own experience developing the Rhino platform and supporting telecoms application developers over the last 24 months, and will now be expanded through the addition of shared information from the community. Other tools within the portal include a completely virtual GSM network simulator (INCC), enabling telecoms application developers to test services without needing access to a GSM network, as well as Rhino SDKs, APIs and discussion forums.
David Ferry, CTO at OpenCloud commented: "The portal enables us to share the knowledge we have acquired through years of developing and environment for new applications, while providing a meeting place for developers to support and debate with one another, facilitating innovation. We have spent a lot of time ensuring that the portal is as valuable as possible and will continue to populate it with useful tools and knowledge. With the added contribution of the rest of the community through the forums and discussion boards we hope to see the site become the hotbed for application innovation in the months to come."
