Re: [Asterisk-java-users] OT: Asterisk billing development

[Thameem A. <tha...@ya...>]

The reason for not using mysql are follows:

Even with mysql 5 I can't use tru PL/SQLs ..like mysql will not return cursors which is more important for any developer.

Secondly MYSQL is not suitable for transactional db which is good for only web applications which are flat db model.

Thanks

 Postgres is great, but the database that gets deployed with asterisk most often is mysql.

 Sorry for sending mail to this list but I find that the people participating in this list would be appropriate to ask. 
   
 I am planning to develop an billing application for asterisk based on asterisk-java. This would be a full fledged routing, billing and calling card platform. Many people may ask why the heck i need to build a new one if there are many open source softwares available. The reason are many. I evaluated almost all the opensource/commercial products written in many different languages (non so far in java)...but they lag of different things....nothing is fully functionaly or to my expectation..for example, 
   
 A2billing .. Not a very good design though..will not handle simultaneous calls from an account, will not have a good calling card platform, no callback service, etc. 
   
 MORCC -  its a simple and nice calling card app but no way for provisioning users, prepaid or post paid options
   
 AstBill - need drupal (which i hate it), not a true calling card app and having problem with simultaneous call billing calculation..
   
 So, here is my request.. I would like to find out is there any more people available to give me hand on developing that product. I already have one in production which is working so far good but i want to rewrite the whole thing again and fix the bottlenecks i found. Here are the technologies i am planning to use... Struts 2.0..1, tomcat 5.5, asterisk-java, hibernate, postgres 8.x, Jreports or Jasper Reports, sitemesh, quartz and integration with paypal using paypal apis, etc... I have a rough design and plan and need people and inputs...
   
 Please let me know your thoughts...we can start this as sourceforge project.. Stefan - I need your thoughts on this...
   
 Take care,
 Thameem
