Abstract :
WebRTC, browser-to-browser communication technology, has on short term a desktop strategy, which will unleash its potential in 2013/2014. It is a great opportunity for Telco´s to achieve a promise of service continuity for the RCS standard. But general disintermediation patterns and WebRTC going mobile and being an API of its own, are a serious mid-term challenge for operators.
