Frozen Mountain

Frozen Mountain Software is a Canadian software company known for various real-time communication SDKS and server components:

LiveSwitch, a WebRTC-based on-premise hybrid media server that is capable of operating as a Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) and/or Multipoint Control Unit (MCU) simultaneously within the same session. LiveSwitch extends basic WebRTC capabilities by including a SIP Connector for integration with traditional VOIP and PSTN telephony architectures. Large scale low latency audio/video broadcasting is supported via automatic media server scaling.

IceLink, a WebRTC-compatible audio/video/data streaming SDK, available for JavaScript, .NET, Mono, iOS, Android, Xamarin, and Java, including support for non-WebRTC compliant browsers (such as IE) via ActiveX. IceLink includes full implementations of VP8 and PCM audio/video encoding/decoding on all supported platforms, as well as a self-contained DTLS implementation on all platforms.

WebSync, a Bayeux-compliant Comet server for the Microsoft and Mono frameworks, enabling HTTP-based data push from server to client on a wide range of platforms, including JavaScript, .NET, Mono, iOS, Android, Xamarin, and Java. WebSync uses WebSockets when possible and falls back to long polling. It handles scaling to extremely large numbers of simultaneous connections with a provider model for swapping the back-end data services for use with server farms and clusters.

TheRest, a .NET and Mono REST server infrastructure with clients pre-built for JavaScript, .NET, Mono, iOS, Android, Xamarin, and Java. It incorporates a framework for handling translation between exceptions and HTTP error codes, an aspect-oriented approach to mapping URLs to function calls, and a pluggable data transport mechanism that allows XML, HTML, JSON, etc. to be used interchangeably.

Frozen Mountain's goal is to simplify the development of real-time web and mobile applications for business owners as well as develop consumer products that enhance collaboration.
