A new year has arrived, so it is the time for a new OpenSIPS major release – for OpenSIPS version 2.3 .
For this version, the main focus on development is the “integration”, the integration of OpenSIPSwith various external entities. Why is integration so important to end up being the main tag of a major release? Well, everybody in the VoIP world is operating VoIP platforms/systems – and these are more than SIP Engines (as OpenSIPS is). Indeed, the SIP Engine is the core and most important part of the platform, but to build something usable and useful, you need additional components into your platform like CDR/billing engines, monitoring and tracing tools, data backends, non-SIP trunking or more specialized SIP engines. Shortly you need your SIP Engine (OpenSIPS, of course) to be able to easily integrate with all these components.
OpenSIPS 2.3 brings some new and exciting integration capabilities, that will definitely boost the value of your SIP platform:
- extended Homer/SIPCapture integration to allow capturing of non-SIP data (transport level data, Management Interface commands, REST queries and more);
- SIP-I support both in terms of passing-through and in terms of converting SIP-I to SIP and vice-versa ;
- CGRates integration for powerful rating/billing – everything in a simple and automatic way (via a dedicated module);
- FreeSWITCH flavored Load-Balancing for a more realistic and accurate traffic balancing over FreeSWITCH clusters (as the load information is fetched in realtime from FreeSWITCH);
- the Event Engine to provide support for scenarios based on Subscribe/Notify model, where the script execution may subscribe and resume later according to certain events (like a dynamic implementation of the Push Notification mechanism);
- extended RabbitMQ support for custom and flexible data injection directly from OpenSIPS script;
- extended Asynchronous support for more complex async scenarios (like launch with no wait);
- more end-device integration (special SIP extensions).
