Building Efficient Microservices Using gRPC
In this chapter, you will be introduced to gRPC, which enables a developer to build highly efficient services across most platforms. However, web browsers do not have full support for programmatic access to all features of HTTP/2, which is required by gRPC. This makes gRPC most useful for implementing intermediate tier-to-tier services and microservices because they must perform a lot of communication between multiple microservices to achieve a complete task.
Improving the efficiency of that communication is vital to success for the scalability and performance of microservices. A monolithic, two-tier, client-to-service style service could get away with being less efficient because there is only ...
