Description

cote components are great for one-way communication (pub/sub, or req/res).

In practice, some microservices need a two-way communication channel. Since cote components work as TCP servers and clients, currently we have to implement this two-way communication via two different components, which means we would have two TCP servers for this. This is a waste.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study cote's existing communication patterns and design a Channel component for bidirectional messaging that uses a single TCP connection.
