How WebRTC will empower RCS-e/Joyn. Demo.

Lastly we are reading discussions about considering WebRTC as a threat for the telcos. We want to demonstrate the opposite. If telcos deploy the FTB (REST Exposure of its enablers as voice, RCS-e), allowing to create thin clients endpoints of its enablers. then telco communications will become ubiquitous and fully multimedia.
See our demo: adding to our RCS-e Web Client powered by RCS-e Thin Client Server and RCS-e LiveServe REST API the WebRTC webkit by Ericsson just for this demo purpose.
In the next future we may expect that all web browsers will support natively WebRTC, and great communicators will be feasible. It means a huge opportunites for the ones having a great core and services.

What is a RCS-e/Joyn Thin/Web Client?

Sometimes it is difficult to explain new things that are breaking traditional concepts. Ok, we are facing this with our thin-client approach.
A communication client (an communication end-point) includes a protocol/signalling side and an user interface, and both are together in a client (smartphone or pc applications). What Solaiemes does is splitting the client in 2 separated parts, the communications protocols are kept running in a server in the telco/service provider dependencies, and are exposed using internet technology (REST API/ SOAP WS API) to create a remote user interface as Web, Widget, or App but without need to implement all the protocol stack in the user device.

With this approach:
- Telco empowers its role as cloud communication providers.
- Users can enjoy of advanced communications even with simple devices (using HTML views for communication clients in simple phones) or not ready to deploy full communication stack devices as Connected TVs.
- Also, telcos can reach end users beyond their "data connectivity", they can offer their communications to their customer TV or tablet even if those are connected to internet with other providers. TelcoOTT.

Our platform to instance those "RCS-e Virtual Clients" in the service provider cloud is the RCS-e Thin-Client Server product.
