Certified multimedia statement with WebRTC and Microservices
Résumé
The articulation between WebRTC and microservices deserves more attention and we argue that it could be highly promising. We illustrate it by the introduction, the analysis and the implementation of an innovative use case dedicated to the development of multimedia statements certified in a fair way. The generic character of this use case allows a rich set of instantiations covering various real life situations involving remote multimedia conversational exchanges. Our approach however required the development of several non trivial microservices. We thus point that the emerging of a dynamic ecosystem able to successfully deepen in this direction the full capabilities of WebRTC, might suffer from the lack of microservices off the shelf. We finally address this problematics of microservices deployment by identifying and discussing two alternatives solutions.
