This article will use following steps to create a typical client-server application using gRPC:
Read moreHow does gRPC server work?
The gRPC infrastructure decodes incoming requests, executes service methods, and encodes service responses . On the client side, the client has a local object known as stub (for some languages, the preferred term is client) that implements the same methods as the service.
Read moreWhat is gRPC bidirectional streaming?
gRPC guarantees message ordering within an individual RPC call. … Bidirectional streaming RPCs where both sides send a sequence of messages using a read-write stream .
Read moreIs gRPC a lightweight?
gRPC is lightweight and highly performant. It can be up to 8x faster than JSON serialization with messages 60-80% smaller. In Microsoft Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) parlance, gRPC performance exceeds the speed and efficiency of the highly optimized NetTCP bindings.
Read moreIs gRPC good for Web?
Introducing gRPC Web gRPC-web is a JavaScript implementation of gRPC for browser clients. It gives you all the advantages of working with gRPC, such as efficient serialization, a simple IDL, and easy interface updating . A gRPC-web client connects to gRPC services via a special proxy, as shown below.

Read moreIs gRPC a Protobuf?
Protobuf is the most commonly used IDL (Interface Definition Language) for gRPC. It’s where you basically store your data and function contracts in the form of a proto file. … The proto file acts as the intermediary contract for client to call any available functions from the server.
