Highlights of 1.0.2.GA
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1) This is just a release over 1.0.0.GA with important fix for memory
2) Reduced number of threads used in MMS to control the Jitter


If you are starting fresh development on Mobicents Media Server, its recommended to start with MMS 2.x.y. Follow the announcement for MMS 2.0.0.BETA1 http://groups.google.com/group/mobicents-public/browse_thread/thread/9e878daac2e86a72

Here is a comparison table that will help you to understand what has changed between MMS 1.x.y and 2.x.y

	MMS 1.X.Y	MMS 2.X.Y
Standalone MMS Server	Not available	Available
Embedded in JBoss AS	JBoss AS 4.X.Y	JBoss AS 5.X.Y
MGCP Support	MGCP Support available via MGCP JAIN SLEE Service (SBB). Hence to use MGCP control protocol one needs to install JAIN SLEE Server, MGCP RA and mgcp-controller-sbb service	MGCP Controller is inbuilt with MMS. No SLEE required
JSR-309 Support	Not available	JSR-309 is availale which uses MGCP as MS control protocol
MSC API	Available. This is custom API developed by Mobicents Media Server.	Not available
Performance	Compared to 2.x.y, 1.x.y has very high Jitter problems due to large number of threads used. It uses plain sockets for RTP	Very less Jitter as compared to 1.x.y. It uses NIO for RTP
Basic Architecture	MMS 1.x.y is built on JMX Microkernel. No flexibility of deciding the media-path for endpoints. For example for IVR, DTMF detection will be used irrespective of application may use it or not.	MMS 2.x.y is built on top of Jboss Microcontainer. Flexibility of defining the media-path for endpoints. For example if application will never detect DTMF but only recording, the DTMF detector media component can be completely removed from IVR endpoint and hence save some processing.

Applications already built on MMS 1.x.y and are using MSC API are encouraged to move to MMS 2.x.y slowly. Please direct all your questions to Mobicents Public forum and we will be more than happy to help you out in migration.

Great. Comparison table for both is a good idea. I am wondering if the JSR 309 will work on MMS 1.x.y with the SLEE MGCP controller present as the 309 jar works over MGCP. Oleg once impliend that it might be possible.

[Oleg Kulikov]

Yes, this will be possible but restricted now. We need to add configurations into JSR-309.

Thanks.

Yes its pretty much possible but IMHO efforts are not worth it We rather encourage users to move to MMS 2.x.y

[Jean Deruelle]

Congrats guys !

so a sip servlets application running on top of Mobicents Sip Servlets on JBoss 4.2.x or Tomcat can use the JSR 309 API Impl of MMS 2.x.y and use it to control MMS 2.x.y standalone located in a different JVM right ?

Right Jean.
