Hello,
Kamailio (OpenSER) 1.5.0 has been released. It represent the major version with the biggest new features boost since project was started back in 2005.
Release 1.5.0 comes after a shorter development period than usual - about five months of coding and more than one month of extensive testing, but brings lot of new features and improvements, with special care to stability, performance, security and flexibility. A short summary of what the release brings out:
* configuration file caching system - generic storage engine in memory via htable module allowing to share data between processes and reduce SQL operations by storing results in cache * execute SQL queries against multiple databases and access the results in a fast and natural fashion * execute config file route blocks on timer * send SIP requests from config file * perform HTTP queries from config file - integration with web service * dialog info presence support - RFC4235 * support for TLS server_name extension (aka SNI=server name indication) * support for non-blocking logging * many enhancements to least cost routing (LCR), load balancing (dispatcher) and carrier routing (carrierroute) * access in config file to both request or reply during transaction processing * perl-like regular expression support (PCRE library) * sanity check of SIP message structure * protection against SIP reply attack * twelve new modules * code restructuring in core - slimmer and less exposed to issues * web management interface - SIREMIS - http://siremis.asipto.com
