I already knew CEP, but I just learned something new called UXP.
However, I can find documentation for Photoshop,

but I can't find documentation for illustration.
When will it be released?

When it's ready. That's all you are ever going to find out. It will one day simply appear, but whether that's with the next major release or still farther away only people on the Betas know and they are not allowed to say anything about it.

First, the Illustrator team still hasn't given us a date for opening up UXP to the public. Second:
 
 It will one day simply appear...

That's not quite accurate... If you want to find out early, there are a few different things you can do:

 

Similar to UXP's release in Photoshop, InDesign, and XD, the engineering team will be looking for feedback in the prerelease. My team (the Creative Cloud Developer Experience team) will partner with the Illustrator team for the release as well.

I'm more curious on when will CEP reaches end-of-life in Illustrator? Will UXP fully replace CEP or they'll exist next to each other?

This concerns thousands of exiting CEP extensions, and what's going to happen to them.

I understand your concern!

 

UXP and CEP should live side-by-side for quite some time, however, using Photoshop as a cautionary tale, this decision is up to Illustrator's product team. (Basically, Photoshop decided they would stop supporting CEP on M1 native versions, so current CEP users must launch PS in Intel mode.)

 

Illustrator has not yet released a timeline for UXP adoption or CEP deprecation, so there's no danger anytime soon.
