I finally got around to finishing my first demo application. First, a word of caution – I don’t really know what I am doing. I am not a professional programmer and I don’t plan to be one. My JavaScript experience is limited to a node.js-based database API I wrote a few months ago for an […]

Signalling Options for WebRTC Applications
As I described in the standardization post, the model used in WebRTC for real-time, browser-based applications does not envision that the browser will contain all the functions needed to function as a telephone or video conferencing unit. Instead, is specifies the browser will contain the functions that are needed to run a Web application which would […]

As I anticipated in my post on WebRTC standardization, the IETF 87th meeting took place last week in Berlin, Germany. One of the agenda items for WebRTC was whether SDES should be part (and how) of WebRTC. According to the IETF drafts, any WebRTC compliant implementation must support the RTP/SAVPF profile which builds on top of […]
An Intro to WebRTC’s NAT/Firewall Problem
Most folks that set out to write an application, or build an architecture, begin with nothing but features and functionality in mind. Many might start out assuming they will be traversing flat, reliable, and secure networks. Inevitably, reality sets in as one starts to demo or prototype much beyond the friendly confines of the lab, […]

The good news is that there is a multitude of companies and products out there for supporting WebRTC developers–more than 60+ and growing. WebRTC is still in its infancy so this number could easily double in the next […]
