ITCP Alliance Closed‑Door Technical Exchange on Traffic Routing – Presentations, Discussions, and Future Plans

On August 5, the ITCP Alliance held a closed‑door technical exchange on traffic routing at ZhaiZhai Group, attended by five member companies (ZhaiZhai, Qunar, Keep, Ziroom, and Flower Group) for over four hours of in‑depth sharing.

The session began with a welcome from Du Yunjie, head of architecture at ZhaiZhai, followed by introductions of the participants.

Presentations included: Wang Jianxin from ZhaiZhai on “Principles and Practice of ZhaiZhai Traffic Routing”, covering evolution from single‑machine loops to tag routing, RPC/MQ routing, Dockerized deployment, and lessons learned; Huang Cheng from Ziroom on “Omega Lane Environment”, describing a multi‑language stack (Java, PHP, etc.) and service‑level HTTP/RPC/MQ routing using a Java Agent; Wu Kailiang from Qunar on “Soft Routing in Test Environments”, outlining resource‑cost challenges, a traffic‑tagging method, and achieving 60% resource savings; and Wen Chunpeng from Keep on “Multi‑Lane Development in R&D Environment”, covering similar routing transformations, task‑scheduler and configuration‑center changes, and future work plans.

After the talks, the five companies discussed common pain points such as traffic tagging, HTTP/RPC/MQ refactoring, tag propagation, and upgrade strategies, comparing SDK, Java Agent, and Mesh implementations.

Additional topics like new service warm‑up, multi‑dimensional monitoring, JVM capacity and performance assessment, and cost accounting were also debated.

Participants expressed strong resonance and appreciation for the shared experiences, noting the event’s constructive atmosphere and valuable insights for service governance and resource management.

The alliance announced plans to hold more closed‑door exchanges this year to deepen technical sharing and invite new members, aiming to break industry barriers and promote collective technological growth.
