The WebRTC Production Checklist

15 decisions your team needs to close before launch. The ones that are cheap now and expensive later.

Your team is building a WebRTC app. The roadmap is approved, the architecture is signed off, the launch date is on the calendar.

The question: will it survive production?

Most WebRTC projects don't fail on code. They fail on decisions made early that nobody revisits - where "we'll figure it out later" quietly becomes a six-figure line item.

What's inside

15 decisions. Each one framed as a question your team should be able to answer.

If they can't, you've just found your next sprint.

  • The architecture choice (P2P / SFU / MCU) that locks in your infrastructure costs for the next 3 years
  • When CPaaS is the right call, when it becomes a tax, and when a hybrid path saves both time and money
  • The codec decisions that determine whether Safari and iOS "just work" for your users
  • Why 10-15% of your users silently fail to connect, and what it costs to fix later vs. now
  • The quality monitoring gap behind most "the product feels broken" complaints
  • The load testing step most teams skip, and what happens at 2x expected traffic
  • Plus 9 more across architecture, infrastructure, media quality, security, and launch readiness

Who it's for

Not a WebRTC tutorial. A decision audit.

Engineering leads

Assessing whether their team is production-ready. The checklist surfaces the gaps before your users do.

Product managers

Scoping WebRTC work without getting blindsided mid-build. Each item maps to a concrete risk and a concrete decision.

Teams in transition

Evaluating their WebRTC stack before a launch, a rearchitecture, or a vendor change. Use it to align your team.

The point of this checklist isn't to make you a WebRTC expert. It's to give you sharper questions to ask.

For the last decade I've advised the teams behind products at Twilio, Vonage, Stream, DeepHealth, and others - usually when they need a second opinion on architecture, vendor selection, or a launch that isn't going to plan. I write BlogGeek.me and co-founded rtcStats.
