I recently read an announcement from a WebRTC company, celebrating the addition of data channel broadcasting to their solution as an industry first. This made me smile, as Janus has supported data channels almost since day one, which were followed shortly thereafter by integration in most of the plugins for heterogeneous use cases. Anyway, this also made me realize that we probably didn’t do a good enough job at making people aware of this functionality, which is what I’ll try to do in this post. I’ll also try to briefly introduce data channels in the first place, so please indulge me…
