Abstract

This paper deals with the design and implementation of Janus, a general purpose, open source WebRTC gateway. Details will be provided on the architectural choices we took for Janus, as well as on the APIs we made available to extend and make use of it. Examples of how the gateway can be used for complex WebRTC applications are presented, together with some experimental results we collected during the development process.
