Dear Apache Dubbo Community, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to follow up on my previous email expressing interest in contributing to the GSoC 2025 - *Add more traffic management rule support for Dubbo Proxyless Mesh** project*. I have been deeply interested in this project and have conducted extensive research on Dubbo's Proxyless Mesh mode.
As I delve deeper into the project, I have a specific question regarding the integration of traffic management rules in the Proxyless Mesh architecture. * I understand that Dubbo's Proxyless mode allows direct communication with the control plane using the xDS protocol, enabling unified control over traffic management. However, I would like to know more about how Dubbo's existing traffic control rules, such as conditional routing and tag routing, can be extended or modified to support more advanced scenarios like A/B testing or canary releases in the Proxyless Mesh environment.* I have researched how Dubbo's traffic control rules can precisely control traffic direction based on applications, services, methods, and parameters. I am eager to explore *how these rules can be enhanced to support more complex traffic management scenarios without relying on sidecar proxies.* Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss these questions further and learn from your expertise. Looking to hear back from you. Best regards, Nikita Verma
