| Name | used by | Description | License | Issues | Opportunities | Evaluated | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kurento | BigBlueButton, OpenVidu | WebRTC Media Server running on JVM (spring-boot), well documented with lots of examples, maybe use openvidu for even more high level implementations | |||||
| Jitsi Video Bridge | Jitsi, CCC | Used by jitsi-meet to route video streams amongst participants in a conference (SFU). | |||||
| jitsi-meet | Jitsi | jitsi-meet is the full (default) jitsi web/mobile client. Build upon React and React Native. | The repo is huge and to modify it you not only need a lot of dependencies but also linux. Additionaly the documentation is abysmal. The only well written tutorial is community-made but only covers developing with a self hosted Server. | Yes | |||
| lib-jitsi-meet: | Jitsi | lib-jitsi-meet is a "low-level" api to use jitsi in a self made projects, similar to mediasoup. | Documentation is ONE page plus ONE example | With such a weak documentation could not figure out how to make a Device-Selector, how to control resolution or codecs or how to properly disconnect. | |||
| Janus | formally used by Mozilla | ||||||
| ION-SFU | LiveKit, Ion | Seems like a good middle ground beteween MediaSoup and Galene. | written in GO | Yes | |||
| MediaSoup | BigBlueButton >= v2.5, Mozilla Hubs, OpenVidu | Low-Level Video WebRTC API | Very Low-Level API, NPM Import of the package only possible on Linux/Mac!, rather for projects starting from scratch | everything seems possible | yes | ||
| Galène | Universities | Very easy to deploy Video Chat application | disconnects during calls, in the test instance no possibilities to change anything, written in GO | Yes |
