Milestone
Value
Sermant is a Proxyless Service Mesh Solution with better performance.The support for the xDS protocol enables Sermant to better integrate into the Cloud Native Ecosystem. In Istio, Sermant can replace Envoy as the data plane to obtain directly the configuration of the control plane, and avoid performance loss and architecture complexity caused by Sidecar containers.
Objective
Sermant can connect to the control plane of Istio through the xDS API interface to obtain the configurations of CDS, EDS, LDS, and RDS, and parse configurations to data model of the Sermant. Sermant framework and plugins will implement gradually capabilities such as service discovery、routing configuration and load balancing configuration, and the the host microservice can implements the Proxyless Mesh capability by mounting Sermant to invoke directly the upstream service registered with the control plane, such as istiod.
