Hi All, I've been playing with Openfire & Asterisk-IM plugin installed on the same server with Asterisk 1.4 with MySQL as the Openfire database. Using Spark IM as the client on user machines.
It seems to work fairly well, not too bad to install. This first thing I notice is all the packages that must be installed to get Openfire running, java-jre, mysql (needed for asterisk-im to work) and many other dependencies. So now the PBX is over 1.2 Gig for the installation. Typical PBX installs are under 600 Meg. This makes me wonder about server stability, reliability and performance as uptime creeps on and user count increases over 50 to 100+. Can anyone give me feedback on real world experience with this type of setup and any performance issues that my arise? Is it better for production to run Openfire on a separate server than the PBX? My biggest concern is deploying a 100+ user environment with high call volume and high chat volume. Java seems to be a bit resource hungry with the user notifications and call pop ups. I would hate to have the IM server walking over Asterisk and affecting call quality or PBX stability. Thanks.
