In reply to renaud larcier. Renaud, WebRTC keeps track of connections and media flows. It knows when connections are lost and handles trying to reconnect them via its ICE restart mechanism. On top of it, many applications have their own WebSocket/HTTPS connections that can be seen as keep alive mechanisms and they use them in parallel (reconnecting sessions that re disconnected, etc).

Does WebRTC has a keep alive signal or hartbeat that maintain the P2P session up when there is nothing to trasnmit for a while ? We use a VOIP telephony system from Genesys called Purecloud and experience issues with WebRTC where their server is missing an aknowledgment from the client browser side (HD agent) and therefore loose the session with the HD agent client. Any such concept or Genesys has implemented a custom heartbeat ?

Lackson, you can check out my courses (https://webrtccourse.com). I am also available for consulting engagements, but these usually aren’t conducted in the comments section of my blog 😉.

Hello – We have developed a social app. We are having challenges with Voice and video services, was wondering if you can assist with pointers on what areas we can improve. We were using WebRTC initially. however we have moved temporarily to Twilio while we build a robust webRTC back end

Thank you
