Flexisip is a modular SIP server suite designed for building and operating VoIP communication services. It provides the signalling infrastructure needed to connect SIP users, route calls and support communication between clients and other telephone systems.
It can be deployed as part of a larger communications platform or used to provide services for SIP-compatible clients. Its architecture separates the main server functions into components that can be configured according to deployment requirements.
Flexisip is suitable for Linux servers and embedded systems. Its modular design allows operators to enable the services they need without deploying every component, making it useful for both specialised SIP infrastructure and more comprehensive VoIP installations.
This is free and open source software.
