Abstract
Media, methods, and systems are provided for a shim to enable dynamic selection of RTC during virtual events. A virtual event may be created, and an RTC provider may be selected for the virtual event. A connection request to connect to the RTC provider may be received from a client device. Thereafter, connection data may be signaled to the client device. A signaling message may be received from the client device. The signaling message may be intercepted and translated by the shim. The signaling message may then be transmitted to a signaling server for connecting to the RTC provider. Changes of state of the virtual event may be monitored to determine if a new RTC provider should be leveraged.
