Dear experts, This is a curious question. While webrtc RTPTranceiver supports the sendrecv why Mediasoup creates 2 separately as sendonly and receiveonly? Won’t it be good if we have a single connection to server and that ports are free and possibly the CPU and memory is optimized on server? Any r…

Sorry about that, it was a bit confusing the question and my answer as well. You’d be fine running single transports for piping remotely/locally, the transport can consume/produce as many streams as you’d like, you just would differentiate them by consumer/producer ID. The CPU/Bandwidth will foreve…

For a fully scaled solution that would not work at all and in fact set you back in development if you coded that way. How could you ever scale the application if you assume all transports will connect to the same server? What happens if someone DDOS attacks your single server configuration for the…

Hi Cosmosis, Thanks a lot for your response and views. I did not understand fully, these points. I got this point to limited extent. For e.g. Why would, the number of webrtc tranceivers have nothing to do with the server setup. If at all, we would need to pipe to other servers (and the pipetoro…

Hi Cosmosis, This is good explanation. Although, the approaches may differ for the choice of architecture, this explanation is a very good base for taking decision.

Hi Snnz Although this discussion referred to generic points, my question is answered by Cosmosis. The discussion you referred also helps for clarifications partially. Thanks for your response!

Take a look at this topic: What are the design limitations leading to separate send/receive transports on the client and can we lift them?
