<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>We run multi tenant versions of freeswitch,
currently we have 4 switches in the mutli-tennant mode. It supports blf's,
shared lines and blf with parked calls with no problems. we use ringing
call pickup with no issues. The group at freeswitch was instrumental in
helping us get to where we are. We first tried mutliple instances and it
simply did not work well. We currently run up to 20 unique tennants on a
single switch with about 400 maximum phones per switch, so I would think that
should demonstrate that the freeswitch is a quality product in the multi tenant
mode. We could probably go beyond that, that is our self instituted
limit.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>We created a gui for it that lets us easily build a
domain, provides hunt groups, auto attendants nite anwer and Cell Phone
twinning, either in hunt groups or extensions, the gui is a combo of php, html
and c programming and of course it is all protected with fail2ban.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>This is designed specifically to support businesses
with an IP PBX type application, small stores using shared line and virtual
pbx's with no phones. It does not support call centre type of
operations. Our largest current customer is 75 phones, but that is our
market, not a limitation on the freeswitch.</FONT></DIV>

Multi-Tenant Versus Multiple FS Instances</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>It's also worth mentioning that multi tenant implementation is
*hard*, especially when used with ESL or mod_xml_curl etc.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>There are some existing systems that use FS which give you decent multi
tenancy support, or with some hard work and a lot of testing you could do it
yourself.... It really depends on what you are trying to achieve.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Multi tenancy comes in very handy when you want to allow burstable
resources, for example a customer could idle at around 2 CPS, and then burst
into the thousands without requiring a machine upgrade. Generally speaking, it
allows you to be more flexible, but it really depends if you've done a good
enough job getting it configured correctly. If it's not done correctly, you
could shoot yourself in the head... cross customer CDR contamination, internal
calls diverted to the wrong domain and all sorts of nasty things.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If you're new to FS and want to go with multi tenancy, and need something
out the door asap, you'd honestly be better going with one of the existing
systems that uses FS. However if you've got a couple of months to burn and a
good in-house programmer, it might be worth doing it yourself.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>My two cents at least.</DIV>

class=gmail_quote>Has anyone considered the Multi-tenant implementation (as
described in the FS Wiki) versus having multiple Freeswitch instances
running on the same machine (i.e. one instance for each company)? I am
wondering if there is a trade-off between these two
approaches?<BR><BR>Regards,<BR>Jerry<BR><BR>_________________________________________________________________________<BR>Professional
