This simple video from MWC should give an idea on what WebRTC is and can do:
So what exactly WebRTC is in technical terms. Here is a recent presentation from WebRTC Conference and Expo
And here is another presentation that explains where it fits in with the LTE Architecture.
Dean Bubley from Disruptive Analysis has writted extensively on this topic and his recent post "Is the telephony "threat" from VoIP & WebRTC about competition or contextualisation?" is an interesting read.
Iain Sharp from Netovate recently pointed out that 3GPP have 'nearly' approved a work item for WebRTC access to IMS.
It would be interesting to see how operators will view WebRTC. As an opportunity or as a threat. Please feel free to air your opinions via comments.

Amir Zmora provides his take on WebRTC and operators based on what happend during MWC 2013: http://bloggeek.me/operators-webrtc-mwc/
ReplyDeleteIn short - the are trying to control the infrastructure for it, and if you ask me, most of it won't be IMS at all.
