And with the new standard called WebRTC, video conferencing, as they promise, will be more effective than ever.

1. Standard of WebRTC Promises New Age of Networking
Many individuals make use of conference calls for numerous reasons but the main reason is
probably because it helps them connect to other people in a matter of seconds regardless of
how geographically distant they are. One of the most used services is Uberconference which
offers free conference calling using a visual interface. Thanks to its identification feature and
its capability to link social media profiles participants, participating in conference calls has
never been easier. And with the new standard called WebRTC, video conferencing, as they
promise, will be more effective than ever.
The technology being developed by the WebRTC to be used in real time communications is
anticipated to proclaim a new age of networking. With the technology, aiming to embed
audio, as well as video conferencing capabilities in web browsers, it will enable devices
including mobile phones and tablets to communicate with web browsers through the
WebRTC application programming interface (API).
The aim of this project, which launched back in the middle of 2011, is to allow applications
including video chat, voice calling and peer-to-peer file sharing in the absence of plug-ins.
As mentioned in their website, the WebRTC is an open project which gives web browsers
real time communications which makes use of Javascript APIs and is available for free.
The good thing about the WebRTC is that it will be able to help businesses produce browser
pages as part of their business’ internal workflow, process application or e-commerce in real
time. In addition, applications based on the WebRTC will also be able to establish
connections enabling video streaming to numerous media servers and devices that have the
same specifications as the standard. Enterprises should already expect that WebRTC will, in
the long run, become sturdy enough to be used for communications applications. Aside from
that, they should also expect WebRTC to be used in communications, collaboration, video
conferencing and contact center which are browser-based.
Fortunately, there has been a lot of support from many major vendors which encourages
the development of WebRTC. In addition, because of the tremendous interest and support,
it will be highly likely that the WebRTC can become a platform that will not just be for the
purpose of delivering multiple communications to multiple mobile devices and consumers.
Once the technology of WebRTC is completed, it can help reduce the level of dependence of
consumers to proprietary products.
Many individuals predict that with the development of the WebRTC, some providers and
developers of video conferencing will be taken out of the equation. While that may be true
for some service providers since they will be considered as third-party applications, those
who have been tremendously successful can be expected to remain on the market. Are you
