SFU implementation vs mesh Mirotalk

[pragmatech]

Hi. As ever, thanks for sharing your impressive work. I hope you take a breather sometime too heh.
In addition to your different hosting environments for the two (Railway won't suffice for mediasoup SFU?), I'm curious as to your experience with tangible differences in the two implementations. Specifically, if one has aspirations for clubhouse like audio-centric use, might that sans-video approach work upon the mesh version? Other comparisons, based on your experience would also be interesting to learn. Thanks!

MiroTalk P2P

Repo: https://github.com/miroslavpejic85/mirotalk

Architecture: WebRTC Mesh (peer to peer between browsers)

Can handle unlimited rooms without limit of time, each having around 5-8 users (audio-video streams ON) To have a good video-audio quality. The quality of the call is inversely proportional to the number of people on the call. Not need an intermediate media server for audio & video communication.

Required: Client PC (peers) must have a good Bandwith and CPU.
The current Live Demo is deployed on Hetzner - Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) x64 for demonstration purposes.

Deploy: Any host that support Node.js like: Railway, Heroku, Hetzner, DigitalOcean (paid service) or Self-Hosting.

Bonus: There is an option to use it directly from your LOCAL PC and thanks to Ngrok you will be able to have conference and will be reached outside your local network, no matter where you are!

MiroTalk SFU

Repo: https://github.com/miroslavpejic85/mirotalksfu

Architecture: WebRTC SFU (Server with Selective Forwarding Unit) using mediasoup

Unlimited rooms, no limit of time, and many users. Routing is a multiparty topology, where each participant sends its media to the MiroTalk integrated server mediasoup, and receives all other's media from it.

Required: Server must have a very good Bandwidth, RAM and CPU.
The current Live Demo is deployed on Hetzner - Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) x64 for demonstration purposes.

Deploy: VM that support Node.js and other stuff like: Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Amazon-Aws (paid service) or Self-Hosting.

Bonus: There is an Option to use it directly from your LOCAL PC by these settings and thanks to Ngrok you will be able to have conference and will be reached outside your local network, no matter where you are!

Based on the amount of users you have, you can choose the right solution for you :)

I hope I have clarified your doubts about the difference of the two versions?

Thanks and have a nice day.
