[Freeswitch-users] 2012 VoIP With Virtualization

[Chris Mylonas]

Hi FS Users,

What is the consensus about using virtualized servers for real-time voice (RTP)?  Even up until a few years ago it was hard to guarantee the CPU cycles to the voice nodes.
Virtualizing the signalling (SIP) has always been favourable in terms of HA.

If the entire host is under control, is it safe to say - we can virtualise voice?
Does it depend on what else is shared in the host - say it would be silly to put a high load database server on the same hardware node...

Thanks for your inputs
Chris
