New communication subsystem for Discovery service #1165

Open crioto opened 5 years ago

crioto commented 5 years ago

Our plan is to rename DHT into a Discovery service and get rid off Google Protobuf and start using common P2P protocol for peer discovery

crioto commented 5 years ago

This issue will resolve problem from #899

What are the advantages of this?

crioto commented 5 years ago

@akarasulu common protocol for all types of communication between peers and nodes. Right now we have three different protocols to talk to p2p clients, p2p proxies and to DHTs.

akarasulu commented 5 years ago

So this is a kind of consolidation and simplification cleanup?

crioto commented 5 years ago

Not only this. We also moving towards the integration of DHT into p2p clients, so clients will participate as discovery services too.

Oh I see that's cool.
