        Hi Nick,</div>

        Understand your reasoning - though as Matt points out sql db isn't in
the core so compiling it there would preclude seemless upgrades. Also,
I personally would be concerned putting the calls right into the call-file
thread might create an issue if you hung on a db query or insert.
Finally (and I'd love to hear the answer not knowing), but I
believe "normally-initiated/instantiated" calls are handled with
direct calls via either SIP requests and/or AMI - thus even using the
proposed method, I *think* the db/file-drop method is going to create some
overhead that might not scale well...</div>

                Hello David,<br />
                <br />
                Thank you so much for your response. I am sure it can be easily done<br />
                using AGI. The reason I am leaning more<br />
                towards storing the call information in a database record, is because<br />
                our existing client applications can be easily<br />
                modified to write to MySQL. The asterisk cron/thread that would<br />
                querying the DB should be no different than existing implementation<br />
                used process the call files?<br />
                For those of you that may be interested in what we are doing. We are<br />
                developing an application that will apply NLP<br />
                services on text generated using the speech to text module, and<br />
                generate the response that will then be forwarded to<br />
                the text to speech.<br />
                <br />
                Cheers,<br />
                <br />
