Tropo Cloud-Based Communications Platform

Audio : Download file (TS-317299.mp3)

voxeologoWe welcome Jason Goecke and Dan York back to talk about some of their newest services. When “JSON” talks, ideas become reality! Check out the new Tropo API.

Tropo is a cloud communications platform that makes it easy for you to quickly add voice, instant messaging (IM), and SMS to your applications, using the programming languages and tools you already know using a web services API and JSON.

On this call we talked about the newest features in Tropo and how to get started with telephony apps in the cloud without adding new infrastructure. In fact, at least one person created a developer account and wrote a short application!

Voxeo Labs’ Jason Goecke, Jay Phillips and Dan York  join us to talk about the news:

Ok, the word is out, Voxeo Labs is born! Voxeo, provider of Unified Communications and Self-Service platforms, announced that the Tropo.com cloud telephony service source code will be made available to developers for free under open-source licenses. The new Tropo source release demonstrates that cloud computing vendors can subscribe fully to open-source ideals, and avoid the proprietary lock-in typically found in cloud services. Tropo is the first of several new open-source projects from Voxeo Labs, the innovation and open-source focused organization announced by Voxeo yesterday at OSCON.

From TheNextWeb.com : Don’t accept vendor lock ins!

Part 2 (ZipDX recording served from CloudFront):

Audio : Download file (ZipDX20090619.mp3)

We’ve tried to get people to talk about this before, but we didn’t get a deep explanation. Here’s a chance to ask Nir, who did a compelling presentation at AMOOCON on Asterisk on EC2, to clear up any of those nagging questions you might have.

Nir’s AMOOCON presentation, Dynamic Asterisk Scalability with Amazon EC2 and videos are available on the AMOOCON site. Nir’s company is Greenfield Tech.

Nir is also the author of Asterisk Gateway Interface 1.4 and 1.6 Programming

Jerry Shuman of Perssonas (@theagent) joined the call with some great input, too.
