HOMER is a robust, carrier-grade, scalable Packet and Event capture system and VoiP/RTC Monitoring Application based on the HEP/EEP protocol and ready to process & store insane amounts of signaling, rtc events, logs and statistics with instant search, end-to-end analysis and drill-down capabilities.
HOMER is already used by large enterprises, voice network operators, voip service providers and traffic carriers worldwide, has been implemented as a service in 3rd party voice platforms and is suitable for production.
HOMER 7+ is designed and delivered as a set of modular components and building blocks to be used stand-alone or in combination with other platforms.
- Based on HEP Encapsulation, available everywhere
- Stand-Alone Capture Servers & Agents for any OS
- Supports advanced SIP, RTP/RTCP Reports, RTC Events and Custom protocols
- Multiple Database backend support for Packets, Logs, Timeseries in parallel
- Dynamic Mapping and Correlation for internal and external data sources
- Made by Humans, and Supported by the best community ever
Unlike its predecessors, HOMER Seven is completely dynamic, meaning there are many database, timeseries and logging backend combinations possible - even at the same time! This opens up a number of new use-case options some users might find overwhelming at first - don't worry, its just about freedom of choice! If you're usure or just want a stand-alone capture system, please consider using our Installation Script on a vanilla system, launching our ready-to-go Docker containers, or joining our users mailing list where our community will welcome and help you move the first steps.
If you'd like to get an idea about what HOMER is and what HOMER does, consider watching one of our presentations or workshops:
