Implement webgw in zos instead of the current infrastructure #1406

Closed LeeSmet closed 1 year ago

LeeSmet commented 1 year ago

Intro

We experienced frequent issues with yggdrasil, such that it is not really usable as backbone for the current gateway infrastructure on the zos nodes. To this end, webgw was created to improve the connection between the backend service and the gateway node. We now need to change the implementation of gateway nodes to use the new webgw isntead.

This means that changes are needed in zos (cc @muhamadazmy ). Next to this, we might also want to include the client in images we deploy with the current gateway infrastructure, otherwise people will have to do this themselves. Also, as part of this change, we want to bill gateway traffic.

Let's start by adding estimates on the work required and potential problems if any are forseen, to get a good overview of the scope of the work required.
