I think it's different from oaktree, since oaktree is an upper layer which
depends on API Services (allow shade to connected with), And what I'm
saying is to unify all API Servers. An example will be like what tempest do
for tests, tempest provide cmd and tools to help you generate and run test
cases, each service only required to provide a plugin. So if first step (to
unified) is complete, we can even focus on enhancing API service for all,
and the cool part is, we only need to do it in a single place for all
projects. Think about what happens when Tempest trying to enhance test
performance (just do it and check the gate is green).
Also, what kevin's idea is to have a API service to replace all API
service, which IIUC will be a API server directly use RPC to reach
backend for each services in OpenStack. So it's also different too.
