3. Private message
4. Video
5. Create multiple rooms
6. Store states.
7. Subscribe to data VO.
8. AMS Webcam

Back-end code to create the rooms services and connect to database and/or 3rd party APIs for streaming;
var express = require('express'),
app = express(),
os = require('os'),
http = require('http'),
server = http.createServer(app),
rooms = require('roomsjs'),
roomdb = require('rooms.db'),
port = (process.env.PORT || 8081);
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
server.listen(port, function () {
console.log('Listening on http://' + os.hostname() + ':' + port);
});
// services
roomdb.setServices('roomsdb_services_sample/');
// connect database
roomdb.connectToDatabase('mysql', 'localhost', 'root', '');
// set rooms
rooms = new rooms({
server : server,
isdebug : true,
socketio : null,
roomdb : roomdb /* or null if no db needed */
