 Kamailio is an industrial-strength, free server for realtime communication,

 based on the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP RFC3261). 

-It is engineered to power Realtime Communications such as IP telephony and presence 

-infrastructures up to large scale. With embedded support for WebSockets, HTTP,

-MSRP and XMLrpc as well as Json-rpc it's a modern server, up to date with current

-standards.

+It is engineered to power Realtime Communications such as IP telephony and

+presence infrastructures up to large scale. With embedded support for

+WebSockets/WebRTC, HTTP, XSRP and XMLrpc as well as Json-rpc it's a modern

+server, up to date with current standards on IPv4/IPv6 and TLS security.

 Kamailio keeps track of users, sets up multimedia sessions, relays instant 

-messages and creates space for new plug-in applications. Its proven interoperability 

-guarantees seamless integration with components from other vendors, eliminating the 

-risk of a single-vendor trap. Kamailio has successfully participated in various 

-interoperability tests in which it worked with the products 

-of other leading SIP vendors.

-

-The Kamailio software enables a flexible plug-in model for new applications: Third parties 

-can easily link their plug-ins with the server code and provide thereby advanced and

-customized services. With a modern RPC interface, 3rd party application can integrate

-and interact with services provided by Kamailio. By using the EVAPI interface or the

-embedded HTTP server restful applications can be built.

-

-Kamailio's performance and robustness allows it to serve millions of users and accommodate needs

-of very large operators. With a low-cost dual-CPU, the Kamailio server is able to power 

-IP telephony services in an area as large as the Bay Area during peak hours.

-

-The Kamailio server is extremely configurable to allow the creation of various routing and 

-admission policies as well as setting up new and customized services. Its configurability 

-allows it to serve many roles: network security barrier, presence server, application server, 

-IMS server or PSTN gateway guard (Session Border Controller) for example.
