@will Anton, the developer, also has a VOIP project - "VoIP ID is a Free and Open Source Software to build a hosted VoIP server or hosted IPPBX service. The project continuously powers Telepon Rakyat (http://teleponrakyat.id) Indonesia cloud VoIP service server."

@girish I think what @ei8fdb trying to say (via the link that he has inserted) is that the Nextcloud VM folk now have an automated installation available for the High Performance Backend (Signalling Server + Janus SFU) of Nextcloud Talk.

Hi:

No need for a separate Kopano account (despite what the login says... it is misleading!)!

Meet enables Cloudron users to talk with other Cloudron users and guests invited by them. Log-in as a Cloudron user with the Cloudron credentials.

Cheers!

The folks at Pipe are rolling out a series of very interesting WebRTC experiences for the post-Covid world. See the demos of bookclub, two and podcall at their Github.

Their compelling rationale for these smart, open source apps is explained here from 18:40 onwards.

Given Cloudron's LDAP + TURN, these would make excellent, fun experiences for all Cloudron users...and their guests.

Should these smart experiences be integrated into Cloudron itself?

Any views?

@girish Your new "UPDATE" button is in an "inviting green" color... asking to be pushed.

What if it was switched to a "scarry red" with a scary message like "You sure you cannot wait for a few days for the devs to push you a nice, stable release of this app as an autoupdate??? By proceeding, you risk ruining your hitherto trouble-free app updates experience on Cloudron!!!"

Hi @fbartels,

Just had my first few one-on-one video calls with registered users and guests... Iridium browser at my end and Chrome at the other end. Worked flawlessly...even with 4G at my end. Excellent user experience at both ends. Thanks for bringing Kopano Meet to Cloudron!

Docker is here: https://github.com/BelledonneCommunications/flexisip/blob/master/docker/Dockerfile

Enables e2e encrypted voice call and conferencing/ video conferencing/ chat messaging/ files exchange. Meaningful add-on to the existing Cloudron STUN/TURN + upcoming JitsiMeet. Issue your own domain-specific SIP addresses. Excellent apps across all platforms.

A "Flexisip Server Build and Install via Docker" guide that is too complex for me!

Nextcloud Enterprise estimates that a 4-core/ 8GB RAM High-Performance Backend server (i.e. Janus SFU (open source) + Signalling Server (now, open source) + NATS messaging server (open source) + CoTURN server + Nginx + Apache) will work with "at least 150 concurrent users"!

Wow!!! Really worth packaging this as a separate app for Cloudron!

Shouldn't packaging this get precedence over packaging Jitsi... given that almost every Cloudron subscriber would be using Nextcloud?

@nebulon Got the credentials. Thanks!

While backing-up my new Cloudron on Scaleway yesterday, I really enjoyed the ease of their passwordless login experience delivered via "Magiclinks" in email on my mobile.

If this experience were possible on Cloudron - delivered over the email accounts set-up on Cloudron - I am sure that the end-users of the Cloudron web-apps would equally delighted!

Any thoughts?

Best regards,

Re: Asterisk PBX - Open Source VOIP IP-PBX Server

https://github.com/tiredofit/docker-freepbx

This will build a container for FreePBX - A Voice over IP Manager for Asterisk. Upon starting this image it will give you a turn-key PBX system for SIP calling.

FreePBX is the most widely-used open source IP PBX in the world. An intuitive graphical user interface makes taking advantage of the power of Asterisk much easier to deploy and use.

With remote-working + social distancing likely through the next 18-24 months, this can be used to a) enable dial-in audio-only participation in upcoming Cloudron Jitsi install, and b) host large HD-quality audio conferences.

Jelastic-powered clouds automatically scale your application vertically and horizontally based on the demand on resources. Works wonderfully with the dockerized private-instance of JitsiMeet that I run on it.

If a Cloudron instance were hosted on a cloud like this, wouldn't it also help the Cloudron instance (and its active apps) automatically scale as per resource demand?

Any thoughts?

Oh, yes! A jewel.

The tech here is from Jelastic.

@girish I have set JitsiMeet up to scale both vertically and horizontally; the search starts from tomorrow to find enough users to load it and actually make it scale!!! But I know people who have started with a similar small instance of Jisti and scaled it vertically - on demand - to 40+ users with great success. No need to start with a 4CPU/32GB RAM VPS to achieve this.

And here is another business using the same underlying Jelastic tech to offer Jitsi and BigBlueButton meetings - of varying sizes - by the hour! It follows logically!

There is a large overlap between the important Cloudron apps and their "easy-to-install, autoscaling" apps: Nextcloud, Gitlab, Mattermost, Jitsi, BigBlueButton, Redmine, WP, Ghost, etc

From these two screenshots, its clear they clearly scale WP very well:

"Selective Forwarding Unit - Can be enabled using NETWORK_TYPE=sfu environment variable. The peercalls.com instance has this enabled."

Very Interesting with the SFU-enabled.

In the same vein, https://mornin.fm/ for audio conferencing with "rooms with over 100 people that still had great audio quality!"
