Difference between WebRTC and plugin based communication

A lot of service providers ie telecom operators had deduced their own ways to provide Web based communication even before WebRTC was born . With time , as WebRTC has become stronger , more secure , resilient to failure they have come around to migrate their existing system from previous closed box native APIs to … Continue reading Difference between WebRTC and plugin based communication

Telecommunications convergence – VoIP, PBX and IMS

The signalling protocols migration like from signalling system 7 (SS7) to session initial protocol (SIP) have been taking place in Telco-Industry. Similarly nodes of legacy network like signal transfer point (STP) of legacy network are being migrated to call session control function (CSCF) of IMS that allows the rapid development and deployment of enhanced, revenue-generating multimedia services for fixed, mobile and cable operators. IMS architecture enables operators to seamlessly run a plethora of next-generation converged services over their fixed, mobile and cable networks, achieve a faster time-to-market for new services and have fewer performance bottlenecks.

Service Broker 1

Service broker is a service abstraction layer between the network and application layer in  telecom environment. SB( Service Broker ) enables us to make use of existing applications and services from Intelligent Network’s SCP ( Service control Point ) , IMS’s Application Server as well as other sources  in a harmonized manner .
