Any plans to implement QUIC protocol? #19

Open tysonrm opened 3 years ago

Not yet. Do you have to try it? :) The general approach is to add QUIC's native shared library as host functions in the WasmEdge/WasmEdge repo, and then create a Rust API for those functions here.

I have a JS microservice framework that implements deployment and language independence without the need for distribution and obviates the need for deployment automation (i call the components "federated microservices" or "microservice libraries") . The complexity of distributed systems is the main reason microservice projects fail and why many orgs choose not to implement.

It is based on module federation, hexagonal architecture and wasm. I view this tech as transformative. It "just works" and solves many problems and leads to more oppty. For example, I didn't set out to create what is essentially a serverless platform with no vendor lock-in and no deployment tooling required.

Anyway, the framework will operate like a self-forming, uniform substrate or fabric that transparently integrates and dynamically deploys and runtime binds components. Support for fast streaming and manipulation of streams (e.g. AI interference) is critical. I am comfortable with async I/O capabilities of Node but need the speed and non-blocking behavior of QUIC. Any provider can plug into the service mesh, which runs in process with the federation host (not as a sidecar). Support for QUIC has been dark launced in Node 16 (requires recompilation with expiremental flag). So exploring possibilities. Thanks, Michael. Love your work!

I'll leave this open for now, if that's okay, to track development of a Rust API for Node's Quic implementation, which I plan to develop in the near future.

Yes, I think WasmEdge can be embedded into your JS framework as a runtime for 3rd party plug-ins. Networking can be done in the JS host or in WasmEdge.
