    Hi! n2n was a huge inspiration for the project, in fact I wrote Go bindings for n2n before starting it: https://github.com/pojntfx/gon2n

    Weron also allows tunneling - just specify a TURN server on `--ice` and enable `--force-relay`, in which case it will probably scale to well over 100 nodes ^^ The signaling servers are fully horizontally scalable, so that you can benefit from a faster backbone on a global scale scenario - Redis coordinates messages, kicks etc. between them and a Postgres database maintains central state, such as credentials for persistent communities and client counts.

    In terms of key rotation & encryption - weron heavily depends on DTLS as provided by Pion/WebRTC and thus inherits similar security properties. It is not possible to disable encryption of WebRTC, but tbf the performance benefits of using plain SCTP don't seem to be worth it as the RTT latency and resulting decrease in throughput[1] is the dominant performance bottleneck.

    > dedicated signalling

    For my small projects I run my HTTP + WebRTC in the same server. My signaling is one POST. Maybe I am missing the complexity, but I don't feel any additional pain compared to running any network service?

    > STUN Karate

    Mind explaining more? I use https://github.com/pion/turn and run my STUN server embedded in my HTTP server. I do do anything but point my `PeerConnection` at `my-service.com`

    There is a very neat implementation of a TURN from Pion

  • How do I deploy a TURN server for WebRTC apps on heroku?
    2 projects | /r/Heroku | 23 Sep 2021
    I've tried node-turn in a node.js server, tried to execute pion/turn binaries directly so far but with no luck. `node-turn` works if I run locally and test it with my public ip address but the same doesn't work on heroku.

What are some alternatives?
