gRPC and Protobuf with Python

photo by pexels Context and Overview I am trying to give you a quick learning for GRPC, Protobuf including a Python based application to test. gRPC (Remote Procedure Call) : - Definition: gRPC is a high-performance, open-source RPC framework developed by Google. It allows you to define remote service methods using Protocol Buffers and then generate client and server code in multiple languages. - Purpose: gRPC enables efficient communication between distributed systems, allowing services written in different languages to communicate seamlessly. - Usage: It is commonly used in microservices architectures, where services need to communicate with each other over a network. Protocol Buffers (protobuf) : - Definition: Protocol Buffers is a language-neutral, platform-neutral, extensible mechanism for serializing structured data. It was developed by Google and used for efficient data serialization. - Purpose: Protocol Buffers are used to define the structure of data that is transmitted between...
