Mbuni: Open Source MMS Gateway

by Paul Bagyenda

Mbuni is a fully-fledged Free/Open Source Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) gateway built and supported by Paul Bagyenda from 2004 through 2013. It includes both core network MMS switching (i.e. MMSC) capabilities as well as messaging gateway (i.e. VASP MMS Gateawy) features, and is suitable for operators and SMS/MMS providers with experienced developers. Paul now leads the development of the commercial MMS Gateway project Lark Router.

Initial development of the MMS Gateway began in September 2003, and was completed early 2004. After many moons locked up in a cage, Mbuni was ready to explore the world of Free and Open Source. All initial development was done by Paul Bagyenda at Digital Solutions although we owe a debt of gratitude to the Kannel Project, whose WAP and SMS software we utilize in parts of the gateway.
