#### 100% Open-Source VoIP Capture, Troubleshooting & Monitoring
## What is HOMER?
**HOMER** is a robust, carrier-grade, scalable SIP Capture system and VoiP Monitoring Application offering [HEP/EEP](http://github.com/sipcapture/hep), IP Proto4 (IPIP) encapsulation & port mirroring/monitoring support right out of the box, ready to process & store insane amounts of signaling, logs and statistics with instant search, end-to-end analysis and drill-down capabilities for ITSPs, VoIP Providers and Trunk Suppliers using SIP signaling protocol.
Powered at the core by [SIPCAPTURE](http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/stable/modules/sipcapture.html) Module for industry-standard [Kamailio](http://kamailio.org) or [OpenSIPS](http://opensips.org), HOMER provides virtually unlimited scope for granular capture [configuration](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer-api/blob/master/examples/sipcapture/kamailio.cfg) either stand-alone or using our companion [Capture Agent](https://github.com/sipcapture/captagent) Project.
**HOMER 5** User-Interface is developed using standard Angular JS, easily extensible and with all functionality moved to specialized and customizable widgets feeding and displaying correlated data from internal and external data sources such as InfluxDB and Elasticsearch.
**HOMER** allows integrators and users to define granular custom logic and generate statistic from its capture dialplan interacting with other Kamailio modules to extend its functionality including fully programmable threshold triggering and alarming, providing plenty of space for tailored configurations and logic customizations.
**HOMER** is already used by large voice networks, voip service providers and traffic carriers worldwide, has been implemented as a service in 3rd party voice platforms and is suitable for production.

# HOMER Components
## Capture Server 
Responsible for Collecting, Indexing and Storing received HEP, IPIP and Raw packets from HEP Agents, the HOMER Capture Server is based on our SIPCapture module for [Kamailio](http://kamailio.org) or [OpenSIPS](http://opensips.org) featuring optimized database schemas with advanced options and complex and extensible capture plans with multiple table support and triggers able to interact with any module on the platform and unlimited scope. Includes a powerful and modern [Web User-Interface](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer-ui) and secure [REST API](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer-api)
## Capture Agents
Capture Agents are responsible for feeding HOMER [SIP signaling](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki), [Logs](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki/Examples%3A-hepipe.js), [RTP/RTCP Reports](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki/Using-Homer-5-QoS-Reports), [Custom Statistics](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki/Example%3A-CustomStats) and much more using the HEP _(Homer Encapsulation Protocol)_ protocol. Our [WIKI](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki) provides several useful examples to get started.
The following projects are _HEP-ready_:
* [Kamailio](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki/Examples%3A-Kamailio)
* [OpenSIPS](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki/Examples%3A-OpenSIPS)
* [Asterisk](https://github.com/sipcapture/homer/wiki/Examples%3A-Asterisk)
