Trends to Watch in 2019 for Asterisk Conferencing Solution
Asterisk 15 is out with a new set of enhanced features that portend well for the future of communication. There are noticeable gains in conferencing that set trends in this segment for 2019 and beyond.
Multi participant audio-video conferencing gets better
The previous version had a single pipe that had to accommodate various frames. This presented performance bottlenecks. The latest version includes streaming and capability to handle multiple in and out audio and video streams. Conference calls become smoother and, as a result lead to widespread adoption, especially video conferencing.
Better WebRTC integration
WebRTC has gained a name for video and audio chats and conferencing. Now Asterisk includes options that can be configured for WebRTC. Bundle support is also included to allow multiple media streams to utilize the same transport mechanism. In plain words this results in a much improved transformation in audio-video conferencing with the WebRTC layer.
Direct inward dialing
There are gains in this segment too permitting users to dial into a conference and Asterisk conferencing solutions are likely to incorporate this feature so that hundred or more people can just dial in and take part in audio and video conferencing in a safe and secure manner. It depends on how expert the Asterisk developer is in taking advantage of the latest developments and integrating it into specific conferencing solutions or into the IP PBX or call center software, according to end use. With 5G around the corner this type of conferencing should present no problem. One possible use scenario is members of the public being able to participate in TV chat shows or discussions. Businesses can use this to hold online “customer meets”. Asterisk’s ConfBridge application will gain more widespread usage and deliver a richer experience
AI
Talk of a future without AI is meaningless. Asterisk is the platform on which IP PBX, conferencing and contact center solutions run. Each solution has quite a few features that will gain enhancement both due to AI integrations and improved Asterisk 15 features, making them more user friendly and the package smarter as a whole. In fact, conferencing should be a common thread in all such solutions in the year to come.
