Hi,

I'm excited reading all the threads about how FS blows Asterisk away
so that you don't need OpenSIPS/Kamailio in front of FS. Surely there
must be a point when it would be advisable to do that though, as
mod_sofia can't be as good as a dedicated SIP proxy?

Thanks.

Anything that's dedicated undoubtedly has less load that something
that's multifunctioned. However the lack of any conversations on front
ending a SIP server to FS would likely indicate that no one's found a
requirement for it at this time.

I would truly hate to see discussions of theoretical performance
advantages of one SIP server over another, when in my view, I have yet
to reach any real world limit with FS. My FS servers are handling
100,000+ calls/day per server and are probably only at 50% capacity. (I
see no point in beating a server to pulp when it's relatively cheap to
add another if required)

Regards

OK, thanks.

Well, we currently have a scenario where this seems to be the most
logical setup currently.
We provide PBX as a Service (SaaS), and want to have a cluster of
FreeSwitch servers
handling registration and presence.
Introducing OpenSIPS in front will allow a couple of features, which I
don't see how would be
implemented in a "good" way without anything in front of FS:
- "true" loadbalancing with the loadbalancer module
- Live migration of calls to another server to take FS down for
maintenance
- no need for 100% SRV support in the SIP clients


Best regards,

Even André
