Creating voice applications that interconnect with Skype and SIP
April 03, 2008
Given that I write on Voxeo's blog site, I tend not to write much here about things we are doing at Voxeo.
But I thought I'd mention here one specific post I put up recently called "Skype-ifying your voice applications" which talks about the intriguing ways in which you can use our hosted platform to make voice applications accessible through a number of different mechanisms.
As shown in the diagram to the left, an application that you write and is hosted on our platform can be called into over the PSTN, over a direct SIP connection or via Skype or FWD. Likewise calls can go out to PSTN numbers or to SIP endpoints.
This flexibility is one of the many things that intrigues me about the platform (of which I knew nothing about prior to joining the company in October).
Anyway, more information is in the full blog post. I just thought I'd mention it here. (By the way, if you'd like to try it out yourself, developer accounts are free.)
