Video conferencing has become a commodity for enterprises, and as technology and IP network connectivity continue to advance, the demand for video conferencing is growing at a rapid rate. As enterprises move toward a mobile workforce, video conferencing is necessary for enterprise mobility to connect workers, regardless of their location.
As demand and interest in video conferencing grows, new approaches that leverage open source software and standard hardware platforms are breaking through these barriers. Video conferencing solutions can also take advantage of Asterisk (News - Alert) platforms for advanced, next-generation video capabilities.
Join Dialogic and Digium on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 at 2 p.m. ET/ 11 a.m. PT, for a webinar called Building Video Conferencing Solutions with Asterisk.
This webinar will start off by explaining what Asterisk is for those who might not be as familiar with the offering, and then dive into the video conferencing market.
