Alex,

Indeed I had the impression that you could build a highly scalable
professional PBX using openSER and some bits of asterisk for some media
processing, but as you state it, their roles are quite different.

I already think of asterisk as a kind of httpd for voice applications,
on which you should build a PBX (like you build a website on apache).
And apparently this analogy can be extended to include openSER
as a proxy, just like Squid can be for HTTP.

So my next steps will be to decide where to register my phones,
how to keep multiple asterisk servers synced together, and how to
properly load-balance them using kamailio.

Thank you very much.

Regards,
Antonio
