Intel CS for WebRTC (OR) Janus, Jitsi, MediaSoup etc.?

[moul...@gmail.com]

Hello,

Currently, I am working on designing a video conferencing system. I have experience in working with Google native WebRTC framework and FrozenMountain's IceLink. I spent some time on going through the Intel CS for WebRTC. What I am wondering and what I noticed is there is very very less buzz in the WebRTC world about Intel CS for WebRTC compare with any other framework. Why should I use Intel CS for WebRTC compare with Janus, Jitsi, MediaSoup etc.?

Thank you.

Best Regards,

Chandramouli.

The main reason why there is less buzz about them is that they are China-based (Shanghai) and they belong to the network unit of intel which traditionally does not do any marketing.

Three years ago they had a one day event in Beijing on the side of agora.io’s. Since then they episodically speak in some events in the US, but much less than anybody else.

Their product is stable and solid,  they focus on the entreprise so they have an hybrid mcu/sfu to accommodate a sip gateway and other extensions. Their webrtc implementation is optimised for intel hardware with a lot of hardware acceleration other package do not have. Unfortunately their support is mainly in Chinese, and a little bit in Korean since their agreement with SKT on webrtc for IoT.

The choice of which media server depends a lot on your use case and which programming language you are comfortable with. Note that intel CS is closer to frozen mountain than to the others in the sense that it is closed source. It is free though (unlike FM).

Isn't Intel's thing a Licode fork? Ok, just noticed Licode's license is MIT, which is why they could simply close-source the fork then.

Originally they did use lucide code base. That was 3~5 years ago. They have rewritten the code entirely though. 

They are not opposed to opening the code. They are opposed to opening the code for all and provide ressources for maintenance of all. For the right partners with the right engineering team, they have open their code in the past.

As mentioned at TPAC they will also unconditionally open they entire test suite by Q1 2019.
