Description

Hello Everyone In this course i have shown how you can create your own stun and turn servers using opensource coturn library for using WebRTC feature in your WebApp. Although this can work with a public static ip but it is highly recommended that you should use VPS or VM hosted in cloud for better reliability and connection. Sometime it has been observed that coturn simply fails to start in a home wifi setup and it has severe protocol errors if you try to create the virtual machine in a home wifi and try to do the setup in that. So to have an easy way with less headache do consider using any VPS solutions out thereFor demo purpose i have used azure virtual machine which you can also get for free when you register in azure for the 1st time.You can also check you other providers like Google Cloud Platform, Amazon Web Services and other VPS providers for the cloud VM.This course will help you learn how to setup required stun , turn servers for free on your own virtual machine for using webRTC on your webapp. This will in turn help you reduce your cost of operation as most turn and stun server providers exorbitant prices right now .This course also shows in detailed steps for any necessary applications that are needed to setup like putty for connecting to the virtual machine .
