Kmesh Architecture
Architecture Overview
The software architecture of Kmesh consists of the following core components:
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Kmesh-daemon | The daemon responsible for eBPF Orchestration lifecycle management, xDS protocol integration, observability, and other functions |
| eBPF Orchestration | The traffic orchestration implemented with eBPF, including dynamic routing, authorization, load balancing |
| Waypoint | Based on istio's waypoint to adapt to Kmesh protocols, responsible for L7 traffic management |
