[Freeswitch-users] Scaling Freeswitch

I think that's part of what I'm trying to figure out here.

I'm looking to run a SIP platform that will support multiple tenants and
device types (SIP phones, WebRTC clients, etc). Each tenant can be isolated
to a subset of hosts, as there's no need to bridge across multiple tenants.
My initial thought was to run SIP proxies in front of small clusters of FS
servers. Essentially creating cluster A, B, C, and so on, each of which is
made up of a few FS hosts. Then, have a much smaller number of Kamailio
instances in the front that essentially proxy SIP traffic to the
appropriate SIP cluster for the requested domain.

However, I'm not sure how well this scales. I've been reading a lot about
FS being great as a media server, but there being better options for the
signaling portion. My proposal would still push SIP registration and
signaling to FS, just with a proxy in front. The alternative approach is to
have Kamailio do all SIP registration and signaling, using FS as a media
server, but I'm not sure what implications this has on the ability to do
dynamic call routing in FS (for example, how would I use uuid_intercept to
intercept a live call if Kamailio is performing all of the signaling)

Most likely my issue is just a lack of depth in the understanding of the
roles that Kamailio and FS would play in a hybrid scenario (I'll admit I'm
new to this).

Thanks for the response.

Best,
Colin
