Abstract: Disclosed herein is a technique for providing cloud based scaleable videoconferencing infrastructure in a variety of ways. A combination of hardware based conferencing and software emulation of hardware conferencing equipment is disclosed. The disclosed systems and methods include load balancing algorithms and a software control architecture to allow for flexible and elastic scaling of each component individually or as a group. The disclosed systems and methods are also agnostic to the underlying hardware infrastructure utilized for any given conference.
