Abstract
Systems and methods for providing a dynamically expandable conference call system using load balancing are described herein. Various examples use a media replication server. The media replication server accesses state information of one or more media control units. The state information is used to instantiate one or more media control unit high availability pairs. The media replication server further replicates media received into the conference call system by transmitting the received media to both an active media control unit and a standby media control unit. The media replication server may make modifications to the media control units handling a conference call to adjust for varying conditions such as a failure of one or more of the media control units or the addition of clients to the conference call.
