The SMPP-HTTP Bridge (SHB) is an on-premises platform that enables interoperability between SMPP and HTTP SMS infrastructures. The SMPP-HTTP Bridge (SHB) can be deployed either at the edge of your HTTP-centric SMS gateway or alongside your SMPP-capable platform, allowing you to:
- Expose SMPP to your customers - Translate incoming SMPP SubmitSMs into HTTP calls against your existing HTTP-based SMS gateway, so clients can use SMPP without any changes to your gateway.
- Connect SMPP platforms to third-party HTTP APIs - Route messages from your SMPP infrastructure onto any supplier’s HTTP SMS API, even if that supplier does not support SMPP natively.
Benefits
SHB delivers high performance, reliability and flexibility::
- SMPP compatibility: Support for SMPP v3.4 and SMPP v5.0.
- Protocol translation: Converts each SMPP SubmitSM into a single HTTP POST or GET request.
- Delivery receipt handling.
- High throughput: Capable of up to 500 transactions per second.
- Customisable HTTP API layer.
Platforms, Services and Pricing
The SMPP-HTTP Bridge is typically installed as an on-premises Linux build—ideal for organisations requiring full control over data and infrastructure — but a cloud-hosted version is also available on request, offering the same feature set, performance and security standards.
On-premises platforms
Melrose Labs will supply you with the necessary binaries and technical support to fulfil your required configuration. You provide the host on which the binaries are installed. Support will be provided by Melrose Labs to assist you with the installation of the platform.
When ordering, select a RedHat (suitable for Centos, SuSE Linux, etc) or Debian (suitable for Ubuntu, Mint, etc) build.
