Aculab has released an updated version of its cloud-based telephony development platform. The robust, scalable platform’s enhancements include an improved user interface, conferencing and call transfer.
Cloud provides a framework in which users can rapidly develop telephony applications, using modern, productive, high-level languages (C# and Python). There are two components: the Aculab Cloud and a User Application Server (UAS). The call APIs provide control functions, which allow users to write applications that manage interactions and call logic (what happens when a call is made or received).
The platform handles the actual calls and implements the call logic - transfers calls, plays messages, adds calls together in a conference, etc. Once the application is written, users simply direct the UAS at the nearest cloud to start making and taking calls.
