Which SelectionStrategy

Install & Config
#1

Hi @all,

i have running a jitsi-meet default installation and two additional jitsi-videobridge2 server.

What i want:

I just want to load-balance several participant in one session accross my video bridges. I don’t need multiple region. So i defined ONE region - no more and no less. I followed some advices from other threads.

jitsi

My questions are:

In some other threads they recommend to use IntraRegionBridgeSelectionStrategy, but this brings not the desired effect. Session were load-balanced but each participant assigned to the videobrige where the meeting was started.

Code explanation(IntraRegionBridgeSelectionStrategy):

  • Implements a {@link BridgeSelectionStrategy} which selects bridges in a single
    region, but uses multiple bridges for load balancing.

SplitBridgeSelectionStrategy brings the desired effect but according to doc it is not recommended only for testing.

Code explanation(SplitBridgeSelectionStrategy):

  • Implements a {@link BridgeSelectionStrategy} which tries to split each
    conference to different bridges (without regard for the “region”). For
    testing purposes only.

What is the right chose now? Can i ignore " For testing purposes only." when it brings the desired effect?

Is there any problem i don’t see?

Stay healthy

For the outlined scenario, SplitBridgeSelectionStrategy is the right choice. Although the guide mentions it’s for testing, it’s actually used for this exact scenario.
