<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt"><div>self hosted opensips would be our preference and here is why</div>
<div> </div>
<div>currently we have 2 internet connections to deal with, our connection to the ILECS that we pay top dollar for the QoS and SLA on SIP/PSTN traffic, then the internet connection to our EU, that EU connection is 99% of our support issues, though we have ways of dealing with that to some extent in EU;s QoS with use of ingress and egress QoS capable routers</div>
<div> </div>
<div>a cloud based sip proxy would add a 3rd connection that we have no SLA and no real way of controlling QoS, no matter what it would add latency and jitter </div>
<div> </div>
<div>so for us its pretty important to keep our switches, PBXs and any proxy's all in the same network we control, this is a quality issue more than a privacy issue, though privacy is a legitimate concern</div>

yeah, but probably based on web sockets rather than polling, if I can do that cleanly in a module without ridiculous dependencies.

yup, it would be an open source solution, but packed up in the extension store for easy installation, possibly with a price tag on it a bit like the geotools module.

</blockquote>
well, yeah, that is an interesting question, and one reason why I parked the project for a bit. It might be that I run an opensips server as a service in the cloud for users of the module, and give instructions on how to run your own opensips proxy for people who don't want to have their telephone metadata going outside the organisation (other than to the NSA of course). One of the things I would have to figure out for a cloud based sip proxy is getting it to work and be maintainable, but store no logs, I don't want that data!<br />

The proxy could be running on the same machine as the PBX, or the same machine as vtiger, or somewhere else altogether.<br />
