Hi again, Really nice and good setup Javier, I'd definitely start implementing this.How about geographically separated redundant servers!? DNS SRV? or some specialized hardware for that ?
Can the new distributed messaging queue help in this kind of reliable redundant setup ? http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/stable/modules_k/dmq.html Thanks Regards, Sammy.
