Is there any free and stable Signaling server out there? #386

Closed hhamanh closed 8 years ago

hhamanh commented 8 years ago

Simple WebRTC suggests us to build our own signaling server. Everyone will have their own signaling server and that is very redundant.

My question is that:

Is there any free and stable Signaling server out there so that we can just put it into our SimpleWebRTC code as the following?

var webrtc = new SimpleWebRTC({ .... url: 'https://free-signaling-server.com/' });

I tried

url: 'https://anon.talky.me/'

but it didn't work.

I currently develop my App Engine app that uses Simple WebRTC technique. I know nothing about node.js and I also don't want to host my own signaling server. Because my app hosted on Google Cloud and I don't want another host?

If you want a service that does signaling for you, you can pay for something like TokBox or Twilio. SimpleWebRTC is an open library for running your own with simple setup.

xirsys.com might provide hosting for signalmaster. Not for free though.

I've created one, but it has different protocol than SimpleWebRTC. I'll add connector to SimpleWebRTC in near future. https://github.com/gladkikhartem/koshare-router

If not free it is not decentralized. The payment is a point of failure. It should be a swarm of signaling servers incentivized by access to clients localStorage, making a fast and huge memory pool for mining or whatever. The servers would need WebRTC connections to the clients apps to have access their localStorages and making a great P2P network.
