 This article is the first one of a series about the work that we do at Wazo around Asterisk application scalability. For this first post, we will describe some high level aspects of the approach we take to scale Stasis applications. We will explain which components are involved and their role. Let’s take a simple application as an example.

 Plugind is a service that we developed to help manage third party plugins as well as official plugins. At the moment we are using plugins to add features to the new administration interface, but in the future we will be able to ship complete features using plugins. We could still package and enable official features with our services, the way we always did, but we think that the only way to get a good and flexible plugin system that will be usable by the community is to use it ourselves.

 ## The solution
 
 To provide flexible, API-driven routing features in the Wazo Platform C4 Softswitch we decided to implement it on the foundations of the [`rtjson`](https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/stable/modules/rtjson.html) module. This module not only allows you to push the routing destination `URI` and the outbound proxy, but it also supports the normalization of the `From` and `To` headers, the insertion of additional headers as well as various settings related to the transaction management and its timers.

This makes it a demonstration and also a source of ideas to exchange with the market players.
