Amazon EC2 and SipXecs: Making Progress!

Posted in Gadgets & Tech and tagged , , , by Ronald Lewis

Early today, I started the build process of compiling SipXecs on Amazon EC2. SipXecs, like Asterisk, is another open source PBX for the telephony geek at heart. The process of installing SipXecs is a bit involved and I’m still wrangling with a few issues. It’s certainly a matter of “trail and error” at this point.

I’ll keep you updated about my progress. I’m pretty anxious to try out this platform. Once I’ve succeeded in making SipXecs work, I’ll move on to conquer YATE and FreeSWITCH. We already know that Asterisk is a cakewalk — I’ve been using it for months now on EC2.

    We have managed to install SipXecs 4.0.1 in the Amazon EC2 cloud and have connected to an external SIP and we are now able to make calls to the PSTN and mobile networks.

    what would be interesting to know is if you have had any issue with media traffic? it is well known that real-time media and Virtualization dont mix. Our Experience so far has been very positive we have had the type of real-time media issue that we saw with VM WARE. If anyone knows why AWS EC2 handle real-time voice traffic without any delay of jitter, I would like to know?
