Abstract:
Scalable Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) media engines, and related methods, systems, and computer-readable media, are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method for providing a scalable WebRTC media engine comprises instantiating one or more virtual WebRTC agents, each corresponding to one or more of a plurality of WebRTC clients. The method further comprises establishing a plurality of WebRTC interactive flows, each connecting one of the one or more virtual WebRTC agents with the corresponding one or more of the plurality of WebRTC clients. The method also comprises receiving contents of the plurality of WebRTC interactive flows as input from the one or more virtual WebRTC agents, and synthesizing the contents of the plurality of WebRTC interactive flows. The method additionally comprises directing the synthesized contents as output to one of more of the plurality of WebRTC interactive flows via the corresponding one or more virtual WebRTC agents.
Abstract:
Embodiments include providing network management based on monitoring Quality of Service (QoS) characteristics of Web Real-Time Communications (WebRTC) interactive flows, and related methods, systems, and computer-readable media. In one embodiment, a method for providing network management based on monitoring QoS characteristics of WebRTC interactive flows is provided. The method comprises obtaining, by a QoS acquisition agent of a WebRTC client executing on a computing device, a WebRTC interactive flow QoS characteristic that indicates a quality of a WebRTC interactive flow over a network. The method further comprises communicating, by the QoS acquisition agent, the WebRTC interactive flow QoS characteristic to a QoS monitoring agent external to the WebRTC client. The method additionally comprises initiating, by the QoS monitoring agent, a network management task based on the WebRTC interactive flow QoS characteristic. In this manner, QoS characteristics may be collected and correlated in order to optimize a user's WebRTC experience.
Abstract:
Embodiments include acquiring and correlating Web Real-Time Communications (WebRTC) interactive flow characteristics, and related methods, systems, and computer-readable media. In one embodiment, a method for acquiring and correlating characteristics of WebRTC interactive flows comprises receiving, by an acquisition agent of a WebRTC client executing on a computing device, a peer connection initiation dialogue for establishing a WebRTC interactive flow. The method further comprises determining, by the acquisition agent, one or more characteristics of the WebRTC interactive flow based on the peer connection initiation dialogue. The method additionally comprises receiving, by a correlation agent, the one or more characteristics of the WebRTC interactive flow from the acquisition agent, and storing the one or more characteristics of the WebRTC interactive flow. The method also comprises correlating, by the correlation agent, one or more stored characteristics, and generating, by the correlation agent, one or more interaction records based on the correlating.
Abstract:
Application-to-repository data mapping in data repositories is disclosed herein. Related methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed. In this regard, in one embodiment, a method for providing application-to-repository data mapping in a data repository is provided. The method comprises receiving, by a data repository, a definition of a named data object from an application. The method further includes generating a mapping of the named data object to a data element stored in the data repository. The method also comprises storing the mapping as application metadata in a predefined data structure in the data repository. The method additionally comprises providing, to the application, access to the data element based on the mapping of the named data object to the data element. The data repository thus provides a metadata architecture minimizing the impact of changes to the data repository, while also simplifying sharing of data among applications.
Abstract:
Distributed application of enterprise policies to WebRTC interactive sessions, and related methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed. In this regard, in one embodiment, a method for applying an enterprise policy to a WebRTC interactive session comprises receiving, by a distributed policy enforcement agent of a recipient device, a WebRTC session description object directed to the recipient device originating from a sender device via a secure network connection. The method further comprises determining, by the distributed policy enforcement agent, one or more enterprise policies based on the WebRTC session description object. The method additionally comprises applying the one or more enterprise policies to the WebRTC session description object. In this manner, an enterprise may permit establishment of a WebRTC interactive session that crosses an enterprise network boundary, while at the same time ensuring that the WebRTC interactive session complies with the one or more enterprise policies.
