    It is Microsoft Teams now, but older installs had it called Skype for Business

        Yeah, likely they’re using the same backend to provide voip services (maybe skype’s backend just scaled up) . Teams must’ve borrowed something from skype given how haphazardly it was developed and released.

          MS Teams actually makes use of WebRTC. That’s a standard for VoIP (and similar) via web browsers. Mozilla and Google standardized that a few years ago and implemented it in their browsers, so what Microsoft did, is that they basically shipped a whole Google Chrome to users.

          I believe, they did rip some code from Skype for Business for the integration into Windows, though. In the early days, the OS would say that the Teams notifications came from Skype for Business.

          Skype for business barely had anything to do with Skype tho, other than the name.

          If you write apps integrating with MS Teams you still sometimes get exceptions mentioning Skype. I’m pretty sure they reused a decent part of the code
