🧱 Architecture

• Communication between consumers and providers is done via RPC protocols like Triple, TCP, REST, etc.
• Consumers dynamically discover provider instances from registries (e.g., Zookeeper, Nacos) and manage traffic using defined strategies.
• Built-in support for dynamic config, metrics, tracing, security, and a visualized console.
