Abstract:
A request to establish a communication session between a first communication endpoint to a second communication endpoint is received. A determination is made that the request to establish the communication session requires an application to be inserted into the communication session between the first communication endpoint and the second communication endpoint. For example, the application may be a call recording application. A first processing resource in a first idle communication endpoint is selected based on an idleness factor of the first processing resource. The application is sent to the first idle communication endpoint. The application in the first idle communication endpoint is then inserted into the communication session between the first communication endpoint and the second communication endpoint.

Abstract:
A request to subscribe to QoS information is received from a monitoring element. A monitoring element may be a centralized communication system, such as a Private Branch Exchange (PBX). The QoS information is from a plurality of network elements at a plurality of locations. A network element may be, for example, a communication endpoint, a router, a media server, and/or the like. The QoS information is based on a location map that includes information for the plurality of locations. The plurality of locations are controlled by separate communication systems. A determination is made whether a threshold for the QoS information has been reached. If the threshold for the QoS information has reach reached, a notification is sent to the monitoring element. Upon receiving the notification, the monitoring element can cause an action to occur to address a QoS problem.
Abstract:
Statistics of a media stream of a communication session are received from one or more communication devices involved in the communication session. The statistics are from various communication devices that are involved in the media stream of the communication session. A determination is made to see if at least one of the statistics from one of the communication devices meets a threshold. In response to the at least one of the statistics meeting the threshold, a message is sent to dynamically change a configuration the media stream of the communication session while the communication session is still active. For example, the message may be to switch to a different media server in order to improve the quality of the media stream.
Abstract:
A feature server determines a hierarchical network topology for identifying presence information of communication endpoints. The hierarchical network topology comprises at least a first level and an endpoint level. The feature server queries a communication device at the first level to determine if the communication device at the first level is reachable via one or more routes. In response to determining that the communication device at the first level is not reachable via any of the one or more routes, the feature server forbears from querying one or more communication endpoints associated with the communication device at the first level for the presence information. In response to determining that the communication device at the first level is now reachable via the one or more routes, the feature server queries the one or more communication endpoints associated with the communication device at the first level for the presence information.
