[asterisk-users] Asterisk is not designed for University with largeuser base?

[Yehavi Bourvine]

Hello'

  I am at the same situation as you. I also work at a university and we have
over 8.000 extensions on a Nortel PBX. I also run a small Asterisk pilot.

  I am using a realtime users database and the main problem is that Aaterisk
does too mcuh database access to inquire for the currently registered users.
(I am using direct RTP path between the phones so this is not  a limiting
issue here).

  I am checking now a combination of OpenSIPS and Asterisk, where OpenSIPS
will serve the phones and Asterisk the more complicate things (voicemail,
transcoding, etc.). OpenSIPS still lacks some of Asterisk features, but they
are being worked on.

                            Regards, __Yehavi:
